Welcome to my profile!
I wear a few hats in my professional life, all aligned with my mission: to empower people to empower themselves so that we may live into our best, shared future.
I am a clinician registered with the Psychotherapists and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) and based in Canberra, Australia, although using the wonders of modern technology, my clients are scattered across the world. I see clients in person in office at The Trauma and Well-Being Centre, which I established with my lovely partner in life and love, who is just finishing her Somatic Experiencing qualification. That website is here: https://traumaandwell-being.com
I love my clinical practice, in which I draw from different modalities, my initial training is as as post-Jungian psychotherapist and counsellor blends with Somatic Experiencing, therapeutic coaching and Somatic Resilience and Regulation techniques.
Other Services My philosophy for working with people is to integrate body and mind, which is why I have developed a suite of courses to support my skills as a body-aware practitioner. The courses are collectively called Life University because they approach the process forming frameworks of understanding for the journey of life.
Courses built:
The Embodied Brain: Befriending Your Nervous System,
Moving from Burnout to Flow,
Inner Criticism and Self Sabotage,
How to Stop Hurting the Ones You Love: Ending the Cycle of Drama,
Trauma-Informed Leadership for Life and Business,
Become a (non-violent) Boundary Badass,
Understanding Triggers and Taming Anger
...with more in the pipeline.
Along with some business partners, I have developed a certificate-based coaching course and a PACFA CPD-certified facilitation training, through our company Primal Intelligence (https://www.primalintelligence.com.au).
I have published papers and presented at conferences in a number of areas, including trauma and legal practice and trauma-informed leadership for business and life.
