FOR WOMEN
Reconnect with Your Essence
Transform Your Relationship with the Masculine
Sometimes the work is about your relationship with yourself. Sometimes it is about your relationship with a man, your father, your partner, your son or patterns with men that keep repeating.
I work with women who want to understand themselves more deeply, make sense of the men in their lives, heal old relational wounds and develop greater freedom, intimacy and choice in how they love and relate.
Online across Australia. Individual sessions and bespoke support.

A NOTE BEFORE WE BEGIN
I don’t pretend to know what it is to be a woman, and I don’t believe a man can understand women’s lived experience better than women themselves.
What I do understand deeply is men and relationships.
After more than a decade working with men and couples, I have found that some women intentionally seek me out because they want a male perspective on the men in their lives, whether a partner, father, brother or son, or because they want to understand how their own history with men continues to affect their relationships today.
This can also open into deeper work around trust, intimacy, boundaries, power dynamics, masculine and feminine dynamics, polarity, embodiment and your own relationship with the masculine.
A Different Kind of Space for Women
Some of the women who seek me out have never worked therapeutically with a man before.
They have often spent time reading my work with men or couples and feel that working with a man may offer something different.
They may want to understand their husband or partner more deeply. They may be trying to make sense of recurring experiences with men. They may want to explore a difficult relationship with their father, former partner, their son or masculinity itself.
Others are simply looking for a grounded therapeutic relationship that combines psychological understanding with mindfulness, embodiment, self-inquiry and somatic processing.
You do not need to arrive knowing exactly what the work is about. We begin with what is happening in your life now.

What Women are Saying
Deepen Understanding
See more clearly what is happening beneath the surface. Understanding our conditioning and patterns creates the awareness needed for real change.
Process
Turn towards the thoughts, emotions and patterns we usually avoid. What was unconscious becomes something we can consciously work with.
Practice
Build the skills that support change through mindfulness, self-inquiry, communication, embodiment and intentional action.
Experiment
Meet life differently. Try new ways of responding, notice what happens, and discover a New Way of Being by bringing what is happening in here to what is happening out there.
