COUPLES
90 minute sessions
$290
Sundays (Telehealth) 12pm to 6pm
Tuesday and Wednesday (Paddington) 11am to 7pm
You hear the garage door whir open: that low, mechanical groan that used to make you happy knowing your partner was home.
Now?
​
Dinner’s half cooked, bedtime is looming, and you’ve got 47 tabs open in your mind:
Book the vaccination.
Pack the lunchbox.
Reply to the group chat.
Remember book week for daycare.
Make that specialist appointment.
Fold the laundry.
​
It’s a relay race from dinner to bath to bedtime to clean-up to prepping for tomorrow.
​
You’re both darting from task to task, surviving the evening shift. Barely any time for yourself, let alone each other. By the time the house goes quiet, you both end up on opposite ends of the couch. Doomscrolling. TV playing something neither of you are really watching.
​
Sometimes you fight - over seemingly small things. The next morning, you feel ridiculous for how it all exploded… again.
So here you are. Lying in bed. Scrolling TikTok at 12:23 a.m., searching for a sign.
Googling “couples counselling near me.”
​
Wondering quietly…
​
Is my relationship supposed to feel like this?
​
You’re not alone and this is often when most couples reach out for help.
Why Weekly, Why 90 Minutes, Why 6 Sessions?
When it comes to couples work, consistency is everything. In my professional experience, the couples who see real last change aren’t the ones popping in once a month.
​
The couples who make real, lasting change are the ones who:
Show up weekly to a consistent appointment timeslot
Learn how to speak to each other differently
Identify what’s going wrong in the relationship now, heal past hurts and learn to rebuild their connection
Recognise that therapy, not unlike going to the gym, doesn’t see change after one session.
Engage in our longer 90 minute sessions because they know the value of having enough time to unpack BOTH perspectives
Look at the treatment plan I’ve made for them to get from where they are to where they want to be.
That’s why I work in a structured, focused format designed to create movement fast and help it stick.
When you wait too long in between sessions, the progress slows down. Things build up. Resentment lingers. Arguments drag out. That’s not what you came here for.
You want to feel better.
What You Can Expect
-
A process that gives you both the time, tools, and emotional space to actually reconnect
-
To begin to feel happy again, and less like roommates
-
Know how to have the kinds of conversations that clear old resentments
-
Learn how to fight well and feel closer
-
Enjoy affection and physical intimacy – not as another chore or ‘thing to do’
-
To audit your lives and see where you can slow down, stop rushing and have more time for each other
Fees & Booking
-
Initial 90-minute session: $290: paid at time of booking
-
Each subsequent session: $290, paid on the day of your appointments
-
To create real progress quickly, consistency helps which is why at the end of our initial session, you’ll leave with your future sessions booked. On average, most couples require a minimum of 6 sessions.
​
Many couples do go on to do more sessions as needed, or return later to work on other things. But I’ve found this intensive approach is by far the best way to start.

Individual Counselling: Break Ups and Singles
Sundays - 12pm to 6pm(Telehealth)
Tuesday and Wednesday - 11am to 7pm(Paddington)
BREAK UPs
You didn’t expect to be googling, “How to get over a breakup.”
​
And yet, here you are.
​
Scrolling. Crying. Replaying conversations in your head. Everyone saying, “It will just take time.”
​
One minute you’re fine. The next, you’re falling apart at Coles. You don’t feel like yourself and you don’t know when, or if, you will again. To make things worse, you’re drowning in friend’s engagement and pregnancy announcement posts.
​
This is what no one really gets about break ups:
-
That in between space.
-
The hours and days after a relationship ends, but before life makes sense again. You’re not who you were, but you’re not sure who you’re supposed to be.
-
I’m not here to hand you some cheesy “everything happens for a reason” line.
What I am here to do is be your wise, impartial guide through this weird, uncomfortable, blurry middle part.
We’ll talk through the heartbreak. The rage. The "should I text them?" spirals.
​
We’ll make sense of what the relationship meant, what you’ve learned, and what you actually want next.
​
And somewhere along the way, you’ll start to feel more like you again.
Right now, it might feel impossible to imagine.
But stay with me for a second…
You wake up, and there’s space in your chest again.
Not that tight, aching squeeze that’s been living there for weeks.
Room to breathe.
Room to think about your future without your stomach flipping.
You’re not checking your phone obsessively anymore.
You’re not refreshing their socials to see if they posted a Story
or tracking who liked it, or whether they saw yours.
You go through your day and you’re present.
You get through a whole conversation with your friend and you don’t even bring up your ex.
Not because you’re pushing it down but because, finally, it’s not taking up all the space in your mind.
You might even find yourself downloading a dating app, not out of panic or revenge, but from genuine curiosity:
What could be next? Who could be right for me now?
You’re eating again. Sleeping again. Laughing and meaning it.
And then, one quiet moment, maybe on your walk home or curled up with a cup of tea, it hits you:
You’re okay.
Not pretending. Not numbing. Not “fine.”
Actually okay.
Together, we’ll move from:
Shock → Understanding
Numbness → Feeling
Sleepless nights → Calm evenings
Self-doubt → Self-trust
“What now?” → “I’ve got this.”
Sessions are online, private, and designed to meet you exactly where you are:
in your room, on your couch, during your lunch break - even in your pyjamas. No need to remember to wear waterproof mascara.
​
Fees: $165/session | 6 session commitment. You can do weekly or fortnightly sessions. You book ahead for 6 sessions but pay at the time of appointment.
This is for you if you’re in the early days of a break up – a few days, weeks or months and want support getting through the initial wave of grief.
Here’s a sneak peek at what we’ll cover together:
Session 1:
Where You’re At Now
Session 4:
Finding Your Balance
Session 2:
Making Sense of It All
Session 5:
Imagining What’s Next
Session 3:
Reconnecting With You
Session 6:
Bringing It All Together
SINGLES
Ready for Real Love?
Do you want more than casual chats and coffee dates that fizzle? If you’re like my other clients, then I’m going to guess that you want a real connection, a partner who gets you, supports you, and maybe, just maybe, could be a great parent if that’s your dream someday.
​
But here’s the thing:
Finding a healthy relationship isn’t just about luck.
In my experience as a relationship therapist, it’s about knowing yourself, spotting the signs, and not settling for less than you deserve.
Why This Matters And Why Now
Imagine your love life as your own epic story, the one where you are the hero. Right now, you’re in the chapter where the stakes are high. You’re dating, meeting new people, trying to figure out what’s what. It’s exciting but also overwhelming.
This is when you decide you’re not going to settle for just anyone. You’re ready to face the challenges of dating with eyes wide open and heart fully engaged.
​
Because if you don’t take action now?
You risk falling into the same patterns, wasting time on people who aren’t right for you, or missing out on the chance for something truly amazing.
Here’s What I Propose
After working with countless people just like you, who also wanted to finally meet their person, I’ve mapped a pathway that can help you to do just that. By working together, you will learn how to find someone who gets you, is on your level and how to spot red flags even in the honeymoon phase,
Session 1: Get Ready!
You’ll get clear on your current relationship story: your patterns, your hopes, and the stuff that’s tripping you up. This is your foundation: knowing where you stand before you take the next leap.
Session 3: Spotting Red Flags Like a Pro
Learn to recognise the subtle (and not so subtle) signs that someone’s not right for you. This isn’t about cynicism: it’s about smart self protection.
Session 5: Understanding Attachment Styles & Love Languages
Dating isn’t just about the other person: it’s about you too. Discover how your attachment style and love language shape your relationships and what that means for finding “the one.”
Session 2: Stop Settling For Relationships That Don’t Tick All of Your Boxes
Forget vague “pros and cons” checklists. We’ll get specific about the qualities and values you need in a partner: someone who aligns with your life and dreams (including if you want kids someday).
Session 4: Be Heard
Healthy relationships are built on honest communication. We’ll practice how to say what you mean, listen deeply, and navigate tough conversations with confidence.
Session 6: Building Boundaries & Choosing Wisely
Wrap up with a solid plan for how to set boundaries that keep your heart safe but open. Learn how to choose a partner who’s not just a great person but a great partner and potential parent if that’s your goal.
Ready to stop spinning your wheels and start your real love story?
This six session program is all online: join from your couch or even on your lunch break. It’s $165 per session, and I highly recommend booking the full six sessions for the best transformation. Payment is due on the day of appointment.
​
You deserve a relationship that feels like home.
Let’s make that your next chapter.
​
You’re absolutely welcome to continue beyond 6 sessions, that’s just a starting point to help you discover what’s right for you. Many people return once they’ve met someone special or started dating more seriously. That’s when we work together to spot any red flags (even through the rose coloured glasses!) and build strong foundations for a loving, lasting relationship
