I am a counsellor in private practice and provide face-to-face and telehealth counselling, and equine-assisted mental health services and arts therapy. I work with adults, teens and children impacted by stress; burnout; work, study and performance anxiety; trauma; injury and illness recovery; disability; psychosocial rehabilitation; career transitions; managing high sensitivity; and compassion fatigue recovery. As well as holding counselling, wellbeing and educator roles in diverse sectors including schools, workplaces, and the equine industry, I bring over 40 years of professional equine industry experience as a coach, competitor, trainer and assessor. This allows me to offer a unique perspective into the world of competitive and recreational horse sports and the challenges facing those who work and manage enterprises in the equine industry. In addition to providing general counselling services, I support employees and professionals in various industries including the equine industry, as well as high performance athletes with a disability, Para-equestrian riders and recreational riders. As an Equestrian Australia Coach as well as a qualified registered counsellor, I am able to assist clients who may be struggling with performance and training issues relating to their mental health, wellbeing and their horses and can provide tools and interventions specific to their needs in this sector. My passion is trauma recovery and post-traumatic growth, facilitating change through connecting people with their strengths and values, providing a safe space for exploring options and resources, empowering individuals and communities through journeys of self-discovery, with practical, useful, tried and tested evidence-based interventions.
