Frequently Asked Questions

You will find answers to the most commonly asked questions about my services below.
If you still have unanswered questions, please reach out!

  • All professional counsellors have certain procedures and guidelines they follow, and the most important factor is always their clients’ safety and well-being. For a detailed description of what you can expect when you come to see me for counselling, please read this blog post – there’s even a picture of my practice room. 😊

  • I use a person-centred approach, respecting you as the expert on your life. I am trained in and select from evidence-based techniques such as EFT Tapping, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs.

  • Not just another consultation - it’s a moment to feel truly seen and understood. In this supportive and insightful session, you’ll:

    • Gain clarity on why traditional approaches haven’t worked for your brilliant, complex mind

    • Learn one simple, effective technique tailored to your needs that brings immediate relief

    • Explore whether working together feels like the right next step for you

    Perfect for deep-feeling, deep-thinking women who are exhausted by perfectionism, feeling “too much,” or working twice as hard just to keep up. Book your call here.

  • Yes. Many of the women I work with are autistic, have ADHD, or are still exploring what neurodivergence means for them. If you’ve spent years masking, overthinking, or feeling like you don’t quite fit, our work together can help you navigate life in a way that honours your unique brain. We’ll focus on reducing overwhelm, building self-trust, and creating strategies that work for you - not against you. You don’t need a diagnosis to belong here.

  • Counselling is a process that’s as individual as you, so your needs and preferences determine how often we meet. Most clients will start coming weekly, and as they are feeling better, we space out the sessions to fortnightly, or longer. You are in control at all times – after all, you are the expert on yourself!

  • No, mental health plans can’t be used for counselling or coaching.

  • I welcome clients both for teletherapy or phone appointments. Many clients love the flexibility and convenience this allows.

  • Therapy isn’t just about where you’ve been - it’s about where you’re going. Once you’ve completed your sessions, you don’t have to navigate the next steps alone. That’s why I offer the Thrive Aftercare Program, a complimentary service designed to help you stay on track as you continue your journey.

    With Thrive, you’ll have:
    Quarterly check-ins to reflect, reset, and keep moving forward
    A space to reconnect with the tools and insights from our work together
    Ongoing support without having to ‘start from scratch’

    This way, you can continue to build on your progress, knowing support is there when you need it.

  • While both psychologists and counsellors are mental health professionals offering talk therapy, there are differences in their approach. Psychologists diagnose mental illnesses and disorders, and they can write psychological assessments. As a counsellor I don’t diagnose my clients, nor do I assess them. I believe that each client is the expert on their own life, and I offer my training and experience to support them with talk therapy, as well as suitable strategies for calming the mind and body, such as breathwork, mindfulness training, EFT Tapping, Lifestyle Coaching and other somatic and integrative therapies.

  • Nurture Our Nature provides counselling services. While I offer therapy and can help you with many mental health issues, if you need assessment or diagnosis, I recommend consulting a psychologist.

  • While I don't offer couples counselling, I specialise in supporting you to improve your relationships with those you care about. If you are already seeing a couples counsellor with your partner and feel you need individual support in addition, I am here to support you on your journey.
