Jealousy can be such a destructive force in relationships if you dont know how to work woth it.
Left unchecked, jealousy can breed resentment, suspicion and erode trust in even a solid and healthy partnership.

Jealousy is just an emotion. Feeling jealous doesnt make you a bad person. Learning to understand your Jealousy and work with it can bring so much clarity and depth to your relationships and help you to care for yourself in those difficult moments without accusations, withdrawal or fights.

If you struggle with Jealousy in your relationships, and you want support in working with it, please reach out and make an appointment. Id love to help you out.

Clear and honest communication is a vital relationship skill, and one that a lot of folks struggle with.

I notice that most of my relationship counselling clients can easily identify their needs, but get stuck on how to express them to a partner, friend or family member.

This often leads them to suppressing their needs, hoping the other person will guess what they want, or behaving in ways that attempt to manipulate the other person into giving them what they want.

This breeds dissatisfaction, resentment and shame.

I can help you find ways to express your needs honestly, in a way that's likely to be heard and accepted. I can also help you to work on fears around rejection, embarrassment or being "too much" that might be getting in the way of asking for what you want.

Valentines day can be a bit of a minefield if youre non-monogamous. How do you balance celebrating multiple loves on the one day, and making sure everyone feels cared for and special?

The key is communication, planning, and managing expectations. Give yourself plenty of time in between to reset and relax so that you can remain present and loving for all the special people. A calm, considered valentines day also means that you can enjoy yourself and celebrate being surrounded by love.

It can be tempting to try to create safety by negotiating stricter agreements in your non-monogamous partnerships.

Often, this approach can work against you, creating more stress, distance and frustration.

Focusing on avoiding your fears can make things worse, because you dont get the chance to overcome challenges and build confidence and resilience.

You may also wear yourself out trying to enforce agreements, and foster an environment of criticism and suspicion.

The solution? Focus on having fewer agreements, and Focus on creating the experience you want rather than the one youre trying to avoid.

Need help with this? I can work with you individually or as a couple to develop and refine relationship agreements that build connection and safety.

The archetype of "The wounded healer" is very close to my heart, particularly when it comes to my work with anxiety management.

Ive struggled with anxiety since my teen years. And I know first hand how debilitating it can be.
Ive lived through the sleepless nights. The endless spiralling thoughts. The absolute conviction that my worst fears were coming true. The panic attacks. The pain of standing still because I was too frightened to take risks.

I am passionate about helping others to find more ease in managing their anxiety. To take my own experience and years of learning and helping others to feel less pain and struggle. To help you feel truly seen and heard by someone who knows what it can be like to live with anxiety.

You dont have to struggle alone. I can help.

The birthday of a person who has passed can be a difficult milestone. Each year, my Nana's birthday hits me like a sledgehammer. I miss her so badly, and it hurts to not have her here to celebrate her special day.

Something that I find useful is to find small ways to make the day special: eating her favourite meal off her special plates. Using her teacup to make my morning tea. Wearing her jewellery and her favourite colour. And taking a moment to think about how special she was and all the things I wish I could say to her.

When a person dies, the love we have for them remains. These little moments of connection give us a change to feel those links of love once more.
