Specializing in somatic (body-based), nature-based, depth and existential counselling, my dog Hazel and I work alongside you to support your personal growth and healing. These frameworks are especially useful for folx who are struggling to find purpose and meaning, to heal from trauma, and to cultivate connection to the human and more-than-human-world. Together we work with embodiment, Soul, Spirit, archetypes, the natural world and dreams to move towards wholeness and health. I love working with queer folx across the spectrum. I also offer relationship counselling and welcome anyone with an interest in exploration into my practice
I work with a wide variety of therapeutic approaches, including mindfulness, somatic and body-awareness, existentialism, shadow work and the unconscious, nature-based therapy and spiritual perspectives. I encourage clients to lean into art, movement, writing, inquiry and dreamwork as pathways into creativity and connection to deeper Self. (Video on website.)
As your counsellor, I work to provide you with a safe and non-judgemental space as you take your unique path to wellness. I bring a holistic perspective to mental health which integrates a variety of approaches and perspectives in our work together. I value this approach because I believe that when our challenges are multifaceted, our solutions must be too.

This group is a space for queer folx to gather in community, consciously relate, and share from their hearts within a therapeutic container. There is a profound power that comes from openly witnessing each other - in our struggles, truths, humanness and journeys. Something very precious and tender happens in these groups that is beyond what I have experienced in individual sessions. More info on the blog section of my website - pivotintoharmony.com - or contact me directly to learn more. We alternate between meeting online and in person (for those of us in Victoria). We always have a video-in option.
