I’ve been helping people find solutions to their personal and professional issues in my coaching and counselling practice (based in Wellington NZ) for over a decade now.

My approach is holistic and open-minded, helping address the underlying issues and planning practical ways of addressing them.

The SERVICES
Coaching
Coaching provides an effective support system for achieving personal and professional goals by helping you get clear on what you want and how you are going to make it happen. It focuses on finding solutions that bridge the gap between your current situation and where you want to be.
Counselling
Counselling provides you with a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It’s a talking therapy where a trained professional helps you to navigate emotional and psychological challenges with specialist techniques and strategies.
Career guidance
Career coaching can help you if you feel stuck in a job you dislike, are facing job insecurity, feeling lost or directionless, wanting to level up, change fields, and more. It can help you get clarity around your goals, strengths, and weaknesses to map out a plan for career success.
What can I help you with?
Life will always be full of highs and lows, and sometimes we need a little help getting through. Everyone is different so I work with people on a case-by-case basis, personalising the sessions to your needs and unique situation.
