Therapy
Your subconscious mind controls 95 percent of your life.
Today’s science estimates that 95 percent of our brain’s activity is unconscious, meaning that the majority of the decisions we make, the actions we take, our emotions, and our behaviours depend on the vast majority of brain activity that lies beyond conscious awareness. This modelling dictates our behaviour, confidence, self-esteem, resourcefulness, emotional state, resilience, values, morals, ethics and, fundamentally, our reality and the boundaries of who we are.
Most often, the key piece of the puzzle is tracing back to why we’re feeling what we’re feeling, why we’re doing what we’re doing, and why we’re experiencing what we’re experiencing. Therapy helps establish the why and brings more awareness into our conscious mind, so we can expand and grow from past experiences, and change unhelpful patterns and behaviours.
Challenges in life
Life throws us curve balls left, right and centre.
Sometimes we get stuck. Sometimes we get overwhelmed. More than often, we continue the same cycle regardless. The aim of my therapy sessions is to help you develop more self awareness and reduce suffering in your life, in place finding ways to feed your good wolf and lead a life of purpose, meaning and joy.
Who is therapy for?
The wolf mentality is the practice of being brave, strong, taking ownership of your life and going for what you want and deserve.
My therapeutic approach is effective when you are
- feeling stuck in unhealthy and repetitive patterns
- ready to grow your awareness and 'do the work'
- are looking to improve your relationship with yourself and others.

How do sessions work?
Sessions are online, which is least disruptive to your day and allows us to work together wherever you are in the world.
Each session is 60 minutes. However, if there is greater urgency for change, I offer 90 minute appointments.
I usually recommend therapy sessions to start as once a week for a minimum of 6 weeks. We then review progress and decide whether further sessions would be useful, and fortnightly or monthly sessions can be suitable.
However, people are individuals, and each arrangement is unique and tailored to meet the goals you want to achieve. Many of my clients contract my services as a long-term, ongoing agreement. In our initial session, we will discuss the best option for you.
Addiction recovery coaching
Addiction affects everyone in the family system.
Individuals
Recovery coaching will provide you with much more than just confidential support; it’s an opportunity to focus on making positive decisions in all areas of your life, of which recovery is the absolute foundation stone.
Without recovery, everything else falls away.
Family & Friends
When we know someone struggling with addiction, our own lives can be fiercely affected. More often than not, the family and friends of an addict are absorbed into the chaos, pain and deception, and life can become highly stressful and unmanageable.
The person addicted isn't the only one suffering.
