Counselling for Women
Sutherland Shire
A steadier place to land when you’ve been holding a lot
I offer women’s counselling from my practice in Caringbah, supporting women through a wide range of emotional and life challenges.
The women who find their way here are often navigating full lives - relationships, family, work, responsibility, expectation. What brings them to counselling isn’t always one clear issue, but a growing sense that something inside is asking for care.
You may be functioning well on the surface while feeling anxious, depleted, or stretched thin underneath. When so much can be required of you, there is often little space held just for you.
Women’s counselling can offer a place to slow things down.
A space where you don’t have to explain yourself carefully or arrive with a clear agenda - just a sense that you’d like things to feel different.

A space that adapts to you
Some come feeling overwhelmed or burnt out.
Some are moving through grief, loss, or relationship strain.
Others notice anxiety, self-criticism, or perfectionism quietly shaping their days.
Many are in the midst of a life transition that has unsettled their sense of self.
My work is responsive rather than prescriptive.
We focus on what’s most present for you, at a pace that feels steady and respectful of where you are.
Below are some of my key areas of interest that I support women with:
-
Anxiety & High-Functioning Anxiety: Persistent worry, mental overload, difficulty switching off, or a sense of internal pressure - even when life appears under control.
-
Burnout & Emotional Exhaustion: Feeling depleted, flat, resentful, or disconnected after prolonged periods of responsibility, caregiving, or high demand.
-
Perfectionism & Self-Criticism: Harsh inner standards, fear of getting things wrong, or tying your worth too closely to performance and productivity.
-
Grief & Loss: Support through bereavement, ambiguous loss, identity loss, or life changes that carry quiet but significant grief.
-
Life Transitions & Identity Shifts: Motherhood, leadership, career change, relationship change, study, relocation, or seasons that prompt deeper questions about who you are now.
-
Relationships & Relational Strain: Conflict, disconnection, communication difficulties, or the emotional toll of holding relationships together.
You don’t need to be in crisis to start women’s counselling.
Many women begin simply because something feels unsustainable, or because they want support navigating a demanding season with more care for themselves.
