Relationships often start out happy

and you may have an expectation that you will always feel in love, passionate, close, secure, satisfied and happy. And that your relationships will be harmonious and stress free.

I believed this too...

Work With Me

Then reality hits..

 
You've been together a while. Your relationship isn't feeling as good as it once did. You desperately want to feel loved, valued, understood, appreciated.
 
You're committed to each other but feel taken for granted. You're not even sure you have anything in common anymore. Nothing you do seems to make the difference you want.
 
Every time you try and sort it out you keep looping through the old patterns. You just wish your partner could see and understand what you're trying to say.
 
You may have even tried romantic weekends away to reignite your passion for each other.
 
You're not ready to walk away but you're feeling really stuck.
 

That's where I come in...

 
I've walked this road myself. I know how frustrating it can be. I use an evidence based program and it's proven to be effective in bringing about change.

HOW I CAN HELP YOU

Support for couples and individuals

REBUILD TRUST

I understand the tidal wave of emotions that can come with an affair or betrayal and I am here to provide you with the support and understanding you need to navigate this difficult time. If you are the betrayed partner, you may experience a range of emotions and feel unsure about how to move forward. I'll give you a safe space where you process the hurt, unpack the confusion and explore your options for moving forward.

UNDERSTANDING

Whether you come as an individual or a couple, our sessions will enable you to develop a deeper understanding for how your life experiences have shaped you and how they impact on how you show up in relationships, and how they influence your present day reactions and triggers. This can be a powerful process and helpful in all relationships not just romantic ones.

CONNECTION

As a therapist, my goal is to help couples and individuals learn how to connect on a deeper level, effectively express their needs, have difficult conversations with greater ease and understanding. Together we will work to prioritse your relationship and explore ways to meet each others needs in a way that is authentic and fulfilling. I will show you practical easy to use skills to build strong and lasting relationships with the people in your life.

INTIMACY

Physical intimacy is an important part of relationships but it's not always easy to discuss. Our sessions will aim to help you and your partner address any intimacy issues you may be experiencing, such as erectile dysfunction, desire and libido differences, body image, ageing and other challenges that may impact your physical and emotional connection.

LIFE STAGES

Relationships go through different stages, including raising children, empty nest, career change, menopause, illness, adjusting to retirement. My goal is help you navigate these transitions with care and understanding, while maintaining a strong and supportive connection with each other. 

GRIEF/HEARTBREAK

Not all relationships last forever and sometimes they end in a painful way. I'm here to provide you with compassionate support and guidance through the grief and provide guidance on how to move forward in a healthy and positive way.

APPOINTMENTS

I have offices in Toowoomba, Highfields and Warwick

On average couples wait 6 years of feeling unhappy before seeking change

The sooner you start the less distress, hurt, anger and resentment you'll need to work through.

Good Goodbye Sessions

A gentle way to honour the ending of your relationship

When a long-term relationship or marriage comes to an end, it’s rarely simple. Even when the decision is mutual, or a sense of relief is present, there’s still a shared history — years of memories, milestones, and meaning — that deserves to be acknowledged.

A Good Goodbye session offers couples the chance to honour what was.

It’s not about fixing, reconciling or rehashing the past. Instead, a Good Goodbye is a gentle opportunity for couples to attend together to honour the story you’ve shared, to reflect on what mattered, acknowledge where things fell apart and to leave one another with a sense of understanding, dignity and kindness — rather than silence or uncertainty.

Sessions are 90 minutes, held in Toowoomba.

"There is grace in endings, when they are met with care."
