Mentorship & Guidance
Mentorship & Guidance
Mentorship and Guidance helps you release the stories, grief, and roles you have outgrown, and step into who you are becoming. Whether you are navigating the end of a marriage, returning to identity after surrogacy, leaving a career, or rebuilding life after loss — the work begins by naming what is being let go of.
As a trauma-informed life mentor in Australia, I blend lived experience with the structure of decades teaching, training and writing policy. Sessions run remotely Australia-wide or in person on the Sunshine Coast, at a pace your nervous system can carry. You leave with a daily structure, a clearer sense of self, and tools you can return to long after the sessions finish.

Lived experience of surrogacy, identity transition, grief, and advocacy
Government policy and Diversity & Inclusion expertise for credible, real-world support
Trauma-informed practice with deep emotional intelligence and a respectful challenge

Any questions?
What does mentorship with you actually look like?
We meet by video or phone, usually weekly or fortnightly to start. Sessions run 60 to 90 minutes. The work is structured but not rigid — we name what is being let go of, build small daily practices, and check in on what is shifting. Between sessions you have tools and prompts to keep the work alive.
Who do you work with best?
People navigating major identity transitions — surrogates after handover, parents facing an empty nest, those leaving a relationship or career, people processing trauma, neurodivergent adults, and those rebuilding after adversity. The common thread is being ready to do the work of letting go and rising again.
How is this different from therapy?
I am not a therapist. Mentorship and coaching are forward-focused — we work with what you want to build, not pathology. I draw on trauma-informed practice and lived experience, but for clinical mental health concerns I will refer you to a registered psychologist or counsellor. We can run alongside therapy.
How long does this work usually take?
Most people commit to a 6 or 12 session arc. Some come for shorter targeted work around a specific transition. Others stay in mentorship for years as their lives change. We agree on a starting commitment and review at session three and again at session six.
What happens in the first session?
We begin by mapping where you are and where you would like to be. Bring whatever feels alive — a transition you are stuck in, a question you cannot put down, a grief you have not been able to name. By the end you will have one small daily practice to take into the next week.
