I'm an Integrative Somatic Counsellor. I work with the nervous system and the story together, slowly, at your pace. Not to fix you. You were never broken. To help you live inside your own life again.
In person in Hervey Bay, often in nature, in your home, or online anywhere in Australia.
I spent twenty years inside the medical system. Pathology laboratories. Intensive care units. Operating theatres... eventually founding and leading a company that brought robotic-assisted surgery to regional Queensland. I've seen what modern medicine does brilliantly. I've also seen what it leaves unseen... the person who carries the diagnosis home.
The body thread was always there too. I trained as a yoga teacher in Bali, studied emotional anatomy, and somewhere along the way found Dr Candace Pert... the neuroscientist who showed that emotion lives in the body itself. "Your body is your subconscious mind." That sentence opened a door I've never closed.
Then I found myself walking beside people living with chronic illness, disability, and complex health journeys... coordinating their care, sitting with them in the hardest conversations, helping them navigate a system that reads charts faster than it hears people. That taught me what no laboratory ever could: it's the person, not the paperwork, where healing begins.
More Than Counselling is that practice... neuroscience, yoga, counselling, ikigai and medical science in one room, and you as the expert on your own life.
If any of this landed, that recognition is worth trusting.
