We might be a good fit for each other if…

 
  • You want space to navigate feelings, concerns and ask questions

  • You want someone to honour your decisions

  • You want someone to walk alongside you as you traverse this transition

  • You want someone to protect your space

  • You want access to relaxation, visualisation, slow movement and journaling tools

Pre booking

 

We will meet in a neutral setting (normally a café) or have a virtual consultation call to get to know each other, talk about types of support, and see if we are a good fit for each other. There is no fee for this and no commitment. After we meet I’ll send some more information over to you and you’ll have time to decide and confirm if you would like us to work together. Then I'll send a contract over to you to sign and an invoice to pay your deposit. Once I’ve received both I am booked for you!
