Work With Me
At Forge Ahead Counselling, I support adults who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stretched beyond their capacity. If life has become heavy, unclear, or too much to hold alone, you’re in the right place.
Who I Help
I offer warm, steady, trauma‑informed support for individuals with:
- Overwhelm, emotional fatigue, and feeling “at capacity”
- Burnout and compassion fatigue
- Stress, anxiety, health anxiety and nervous system overload
- Life transitions and identity shifts
- Trauma related experiences
- Workplace pressure, especially in healthcare and helping roles
My background as a Registered Nurse (24 years) means I deeply understand the emotional load carried by helpers, carers, and frontline professionals.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
You can expect:
- A calm, grounded space
- Gentle pacing
- Practical tools
- Emotional safety
- Respect for your autonomy
- Support that adapts to your capacity
You don’t need to have the right words. You don’t need to be “ready.” You can arrive exactly as you are.
You just need to show up — and we take it from there, one step at a time.
How Sessions Work
- 50‑minute sessions
- Online via telehealth or phone across Australia
- Trauma‑informed, person‑centred, and grounded in safety
- A calm, steady space to explore what’s happening beneath the surface
