1-1 Life Coaching · Melbourne and Online
For the person who is ready to understand what has actually been getting in the way.
What this is
My approach is unlike most talk therapies. I work bottom-up, through the body and the nervous system. Here we access the subconscious, where the emotional and cognitive patterns live. I help you move through to acceptance or an honest acknowledgment of what is actually running underneath your behaviour.
I use the "Awareness, Acceptance and Action" framework with each of my clients. We start by seeing clearly what is happening in your thoughts, your body, and your patterns. We move through honest acknowledgment of what is here. Then we take aligned action — not forced, not pushed, but rooted.
I draw on parts work. The understanding that we are not one unified self, but a collection of parts, each with it's own needs and protective roles. When we can meet those parts with compassion, rather than criticism, everything shifts.
Because lasting change is not just cognitive, it's somatic. It lives in the body. I know from personal experience that understanding is just the first step in making a lasting change.
This is coaching for people who are ready to go deeper than surface-level goals.
How I Work
We go beneath the surface, into the beliefs, values and emotional programs that have been shaping your behaviour, often since childhood. Using trauma-informed coaching, parts work and somatic practice to create change that is real and lasting.
We will meet the parts of you that have been protecting old wounds with curiosity and compassion, using Internal Family Systems, inner child work, trauma-informed practice and Compassionate Inquiry.
Drawing on my degree in Human Movement and Honours in Nutrition, we look at the whole person. How you move, how you nourish yourself, and how your physical health both reflects and affects your inner world.
What We Work On
Keep what clients gain!
We begin with a complimentary discovery call to explore whether we're the right fit. There is no pressure and no obligation — just a conversation.
I work with men, women and couples across Australia. In person in South East Melbourne and online via Zoom. I also offer guided outdoor Walk and Talk sessions for those who work best in nature.
Clients describe my coaching style as supportive, compassionate, and patient with space to open up, trust and grow.
Who I Work With
Men, women and couples · All walks of life · Australia and worldwide · Teenagers by arrangement
Important Note
Life coaching is not a replacement for medically advised counselling or psychiatric intervention. I work alongside your existing support where relevant.
While therapy often focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health conditions or deeply exploring the past, my coaching approach is forward-focused while still acknowledging and healing the root causes of current blocks. We use somatic and subconscious techniques to create tangible change in the present, rather than just talking about the problem.
I work with men, women and couples. My clients come from all walks of life, executives, parents, athletes, creatives, people going through major life transitions and people who simply sense there is more to life. What they have in common is a readiness to do real work.
Sessions are one hour, fortnightly. The fortnightly rhythm gives you time to integrate what comes up in the session. In my experience this pace produces deeper, more lasting change.
Both. I work in person in Melbourne and online with clients across Australia and internationally. Online sessions are conducted via Zoom and are just as effective as in person.
This depends entirely on what you are working on. Some clients work with me for three to six months. Others stay for a year or more. I do not lock you into a package, we work together for as long as it serves you and reassess as we go.
Completely. Everything shared in our sessions is confidential. The only exceptions are standard duty of care obligations, if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others
I hear this often. Most people who say this have experienced coaching that stayed at the surface, goal setting, accountability, mindset tips. My work goes much deeper than that. If you have tried coaching before and felt something was missing, it is likely that the subconscious programs running underneath were never addressed. That is exactly where I work.
