Approach
My approach is one that has profound respect for the uniqueness and intrinsic worth of each individual and passion for providing a safe space for those who are facing the challenges of life. I am dedicated to helping people gain greater insight and understanding to enable them to make empowering choices for their own lives and relationships with others.
About
M.Fam&SystThy (ACU), Grad.Cert. NPT, B.SocSci (Couns.), Dip.Min.
​
I am a registered counsellor and clinical supervisor in private practice. I am also a sessional lecturer/tutor at Christian Heritage College. I have previously worked in residential care with both the Banyans Wellness Centre and the Salvation Army.
​
I have been married to my husband Gordon for 43 years and we have 8 grown children and 21 gorgeous grandchildren ranging in age from 18 down to our latest addition born a few days ago, and I adore each and every one of them! We have been empty nesters for a few years now and are enjoying this new season of our lives. We also have a gorgeous golden cocker spaniel called Macey who is thoroughly spoiled!
I love quality time with family and friends and spending time in nature: whether it’s walking through the surf at the beach or going for a rainforest walk or a bike ride along the waterfront at Redcliffe. I also love reading and continuing to learn and grow.
​
I am passionate about God, about people and about relationships and love to journey with others so they can be empowered to grow into the person they want to be and become all God created them to be.
