Hunter Valley Walk and Talk Therapy

You may look like you’re managing.

You may have adapted well, overcome adversity, built a life that functions, and learned how to keep going, even when things have been hard.

Or you may be very aware that you’re not okay, and that holding everything together is starting to cost you more than you can emotionally afford.

Maybe you are a woman who has been cracked open by painful experiences. You may carry a story, often untold, that has shaped how you relate, how you cope, and how you move through the world. And maybe now, you’re ready for that story to be witnessed in the way it deserves.

Many women arrive here from different places, but with a similar feeling underneath: "I've done the work, I take care of myself as well as I can, but something still feels unresolved."

Your mind doesn’t fully settle.
Your body stays tight or tired.
You keep circling the same questions, even though you’re thoughtful, capable, and trying your best.

For some women, this shows up after visible success.
For others, it’s simply the weight of years of coping without enough support.

Often, it means you learned early how to survive, adapt, and manage, and those strategies worked for a long time. They just weren’t meant to support you for a lifetime.They don't help you rest, feel safe, or feel at home in yourself.

I support women to slow down enough to feel what matters, build safety in their nervous system, and find direction without abandoning themselves.

Our work together is about tending to the parts of you that learned to carry too much alone.
It’s about making sense of what your body and nervous system have been responding to all along.
It’s about hope, possibility, and giving you space to be heard, perhaps for the first time.

If you’re tired of being the one who holds it all together.
If you feel overwhelmed, shut down, or quietly burned out.
If you’re curious about why things feel so hard, and what it might look like to do things differently.

Let’s begin.

How I work

This is slow, intentional work. Because it takes time and care to make lasting change in our lives.

The first one or two sessions focus on slowing things down and getting a clearer sense of who you are, what has shaped you, and where life feels most constricted right now.

We take time to explore your story, your relationships, how your nervous system responds under pressure, what matters to you, and what you’re hoping for from therapy. This allows the work that follows to feel grounded, purposeful, and responsive, instead of rushed or reactive.

Because of this, all first sessions are 90 minutes.

This gives us enough space to orient properly and begin in a way that feels steady, contained, and respectful of what you’re bringing.

In person, or via Zoom. It's up to you.

Let's Begin

How You can Work with me

Outdoor Therapy

Breakthrough Sessions

Outdoor Therapy

We meet in green spaces or on the beach. It's up to you. Nature therapy offers a unique space where healing can unfold in ways that a traditional office will rarely match. The calming environment makes it easier to release pent-up emotions and talk openly, allowing your feelings to flow without the constraints of a four-walled room.

Breakthrough Sessions

Outdoor Therapy

Whether you're always on the go, travelling, or simply feel best in your own space, online sessions make it easy to get the support you need—wherever you are.

Let's Zoom together!

Breakthrough Sessions

A one-off, extended 3 hour session that gives you space to exhale and lay everything out, so you’re no longer holding it all alone. Together, we make sense of what’s been happening and look toward what comes next.

That One Thing

Mindfulness in Nature

Breakthrough Sessions

That One Thing offers a contained space to slow down around one very specific issue that keeps circling in your mind.

Across six sessions, we return to it gently and deliberately, helping you understand what’s underneath as we slowly work towards helping you decide your next step.

Next Event Saturday March 21, 2026 10am-12pm

These events are perfect for you if you crave deeper connection, opportunity for reflection, and a space where you can just be yourself for a few hours without anyone demanding something of you.

If you'd like to stay in contact and hear more about the outdoor therapy I offer in Newcastle and Maitland and other therapist musings, I'd be honoured if you'd sign up for my Midlife Musings email list. It's a gentle space that I use to reflect and share resources, and you would be MOST welcome!

No Spam. I don't send emails out more than once a week (unless I am promoting one of my Mindfulness in Nature groups, Women's Groups or book clubs).
