“I’m passionate about helping people to live life to the full.

About Me

I'm passionate about helping you live life to the full. As a counsellor and FIT coach, I guide individuals and groups. We work online to help you achieve your goals and overcome mental hurdles. Through Functional Imagery Training, we can vividly imagine your success and build practical pathways for improved wellbeing. My approach supports you in navigating life's challenges. It is ideal for anyone worldwide seeking clear, actionable steps for growth.

Approach

From imagined goals I translate them into weekly experiments and short practices that fit your day, helping momentum feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Sessions—held in English from my Wellington base or online—move at a practical pace: we blend imagery rehearsal with evidence-based techniques, gently addressing trauma material while keeping safety and consent central. Between meetings you'll often try small behavioural steps or guided imagery to test what works. This approach suits adults seeking clear, steady progress and practical skills for everyday life.
