THERAPY AND COUNSELLING FOR ANXIETY, TRAUMA AND LIFE’S HARDEST MOMENTS
Hey there.Perhaps you’re also living with the symptoms of unresolved trauma:
You don’t need to suffer anymore. Let’s get you feeling better, now.
BRISBANE PSYCHOTHERAPIST AND COUNSELLOR FOR WOMEN
Hello.
I’m a Psychotherapist and Counsellor with a deep commitment to helping women overcome anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, and low confidence and self-esteem issues. I’m here to help you rebuild a beautiful life for yourself in the wake of life’s most formidable challenges.
I work with women who are carrying an immense emotional load: from the emotional impact of relationship breakdowns, betrayal, coercive control, fertility struggles, miscarriage or loss, motherhood, single parenting, caregiving, workplace stress, financial pressure and beyond.
When difficult experiences remain unresolved, they can continue to affect the way you feel, think and behave. You may experience anxiety, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts, emotional reactivity, low confidence, overthinking or post-traumatic stress, even when you’re trying with all your might just to move forward.
That’s where I step in.
No matter how bad you feel, or what caused it, you need to know that your suffering can be resolved.
ANXIETY, PANIC ATTACK AND TRAUMA TREATMENT AREAS
My personal mission is to help my clients gain at least some relief by the end of their very first appointment.
ONLINE THERAPY AND COUNSELLING SERVICES
Perhaps your relationship, career, finances, health or confidence have taken a hit, and life suddenly feels like one big mess.
You might not even know where to begin. That’s completely okay. Together, we’ll untangle what is happening, focus on what matters most and create a clear path forward.
Anxiety can be exhausting. Your mind won’t switch off, your body is constantly on edge and even small things can start to feel overwhelming.
Rather than simply giving you more ways to cope, I focus on the emotional and nervous-system responses keeping your anxiety active, so you can feel calmer, safer and back in control.
Panic attacks can be terrifying, especially when they seem to come out of nowhere.
You may start avoiding certain places, monitoring every physical sensation or constantly worrying about another attack. I help you break that fear cycle, calm your body’s alarm response and begin trusting yourself again.
Trauma can leave your mind and body feeling unsafe long after the experience itself has ended.
If you’re living with flashbacks, nightmares, panic, hypervigilance or emotional shutdown, you shouldn’t have to spend your life working around these symptoms. I help you safely process unresolved trauma so you can feel present, secure and able to enjoy your life again.
My style of therapy is rapid, effective, and the results are quite extraordinary.
RAPID, RESULTS-DRIVEN THERAPY
You’re not coming to therapy just to learn how to cope. You’re coming because you want something to shift.
Every session’s focus is agreed in advance and guided by the results you want, whether that means feeling calmer, rebuilding your confidence, recovering from trauma or finally moving forward in your relationships, career or life.
We review your progress each session, so your treatment stays measurable and focused on what will make the greatest difference in the shortest period of time.
Anxiety, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts, low self-worth and trauma symptoms can gradually take over your life.
You may have already tried coping strategies, but still feel exactly the same underneath.
My focus goes beyond teaching you to cope with your symptoms. We work with the emotional and nervous-system responses keeping them active, with many clients noticing meaningful changes within their first few sessions.
The goal is rapid and effective relief, with lasting change.
No two women arrive with the same experiences, symptoms or goals. Your treatment should reflect that.
Your Bespoke Therapy Program is designed specifically around you, with a clear focus for every session and specific outcomes we’re working towards.
As you progress, I adapt the plan so your treatment continues to feel relevant, personal and focused on what you need most.
My understanding of PTSD is both professional and personal.
Having experienced PTSD myself, I know how frightening it can be when your mind and body remain stuck in survival mode. I also know how hopeless and helpless it feels when you’re not experiencing any noticeable results.
Recovering from PTSD shaped the therapist I am today. It deepened my commitment to helping other women access focused, compassionate treatment that helps them feel calm, confident, and back in control.
Most clients report leaving their first session feeling calm, lighter, and with more personal insight.

CLIENT REVIEWS AND RESULTS
Sarah guided me through a timeline therapy that explored my career past, present and future. Not only did this give me fresh insights into the impacts of my decisions that led me to my current position, but also revealed new perspectives into my career that have opened new opportunities for me. I highly recommend Sarah’s services and am really looking forward to seeing her again.
COLLEEN G. / GLOBAL IT DIRECTOR / BRISBANE
I have spent 10 years stuck and paralyzed with indecision, after one session with Sarah I have been able to anchor into what is going to work for me and make moves towards what I want in my personal life and career, without overwhelm or fear. I cannot recommend even one session enough to create real and tangible change.
EMMA K. / OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST / BRISBANE
Sarah’s approach is wildly unconventional - and effective! Therapists I’ve seen previously have wanted me to rehash my past until I’m blue in the face. Yet Sarah guided me to find such a compelling vision of my future that it has entirely changed the way I live daily life. Literally — a life-changing experience!
SARAH H. / BRAND STRATEGIST / BRISBANE
Sarah is a person who can connect to anyone instantly. She gets you and is passionate to get you to where you want to be. She has done it for herself and she has the tools to get you to where you want to be. You won’t regret it.
NATALIE B. / COUNSELLOR / BRISBANE
With two questions Sarah was able to help me completely change how I view my work and my business. I used to worry about being good enough to write for my dream clients, but Sarah’s exercise gave me a complete re-frame and I’m now just excited to write for them. I’m so grateful and excited for what my business will soon look like.
TAYNA S. / WEB DESIGNER / BRISBANE
I used to have literally shaking anxiety leading up to the final minute of client calls. Deep breathing, sweat-wiping etc. After one session with Sarah, with the next client I just called and spoke. Such a different experience because I saw myself as an equal and with my own skills. So thank you!
