Providing people with ways to improve and enrich their lives.

ABOUT ME

I’m a counsellor with extensive experience in the Healthcare sector in clinical and management. My focus has always been client-centered care and I have seen through professional and personal experience what happens when the ‘ideal’ becomes traumatized. The effect on the individual, family, community and society has far reaching and often devastating long term consequences.

As a manager of people I have been privileged to assist and support many people through their careers and provide advice on job applications, interview preparation and techniques which has helped them successfully gain employment or advancement.

My vision is that through supportive and effective counselling clients will find ways to improve and enrich their lives.

Families

The family environment in which we are nurtured can be positive and supportive and helps us grow into well rounded human beings. When the family environment falls short of this standard it can affect us in many ways and influence our lives. I provide support to help with healing childhood trauma, abuse and complex mental health issues, Perinatal anxiety and depression, healing after birth trauma and pregnancy loss.

Relationships

I work with couples to help them change their relationship for the better and transform their lives together. I believe that with support couples can create a new way forward to a happy and fulfilling life together.
When the relationship is not able to be repaired I work with clients to find a new path forward after relationship breakdown.

Grief Counselling

Grief is the response to loss, particularly in relation to the death of a loved one. Grief can affect your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, beliefs, physical health and relationships with others. Many people experience feelings of sadness, anger, anxiety, fear and numbness. Counselling can help when the long-term effects of bereavement impacts on normal functioning.

PTSD & Complex Childhood Trauma

I offer tools to improve your PTSD symptoms and any associated symptoms you may have such as; anxiety, depression, guilt or shame. We will identify and explore how your trauma has changed your thoughts and beliefs, and how some of these ways of thinking may have kept you "stuck". I will help figure out your trauma has affected your thoughts and emotions, and help you make changes to feel and function better.

Counselling

Counselling can support you to tap into your inner resources to feel confident and positive reducing anxiety and building resilience. I will work with you to help you understand yourself more fully and to find solutions, gain greater self-awareness and trust in yourself. I hope that you will be able to make constructive changes, leading to a more satisfying and meaningful life.

Adrienne is nothing short of amazing. She’s helped me through some really tough times and still does with the tools she’s given me to get to where I need to be. I’ve recommended a lot of people to her already and probably made her super busy haha (sorry Adrienne!). However, her gift for helping others is something that needs to be spread around to whoever requires it. Keep being magical Adrienne! Hope your 30th wedding anniversary went well 😘 x
