Counselling for midlife women with ADHD
Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
Compassionate support to build confidence, clarity, and navigate changing hormones
As an accredited counsellor, with a Master of Counselling and registration with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA Level 2), I specialise in supporting neurodivergent individuals through life challenges and times of transition; whether that's worsening ADHD symptoms during perimenopause and menopause, questioning career or life choices, or entering a new chapter home, work, or school.
If you're here, you may have spent years doubting yourself and your worth, resorting to people-pleasing, perfectionism, or procrastination. Maybe you feel that your career and life choices were based on who you thought you should be, losing sight of who you really are. I'm here to help you explore what really matters to you - and what's possible - so you can gain clarity and confidence in life and work.
...Or you may have a neurodivergent child who is struggling to navigate a stage of transition or experiencing school challenges. I'm here to support your child through one-to-one counselling and psychoeducation, or to provide you with practical parenting strategies and support.
Many clients who are neurodivergent, sensitive, or creative want to understand themselves better, live in alignment with their true values, and feel like they are 'enough'. That they matter.
