Frequently Asked Questions

Here you'll find some practical information about how counselling works, what to expect, and how to get started.

  • Counselling can give you space to make sense of what’s happening in your life and understand yourself and your relationships more clearly. You might want to work through a particular challenge, change a pattern that keeps repeating, strengthen a relationship, or simply understand why something feels harder than you would like it to.

    What we focus on will depend on you and what you would like to get from counselling.

    You don't need to have a clearly defined problem before reaching out. Sometimes knowing that something doesn't feel quite right is enough of a place to begin.

  • Yes. I offer online counselling for both individuals and couples.

    Individual counselling provides a space to explore your experiences, relationships and the patterns that may be influencing your life.

    Couples counselling focuses on the relationship itself, including communication, conflict, connection, recurring patterns and navigating challenges together.

  • My approach is person-centred, attachment-informed and informed by a bioecological understanding of human development.

    This means we'll consider not only what's happening now, but also the relationships, experiences and environments that have shaped you over time. Counselling is collaborative and tailored to what matters to you.

    Couples counselling sessions are approximately 75-85 minutes.

    Couples counselling: 75-minute session $225
