Hi, I’m Kym. I work with sensitive people through periods of overwhelm, grief, transition, disconnection, and times when life no longer feels workable in the way it once did.
Over time, I have come to value depth, presence, and the capacity to welcome experience as it is — rather than immediately trying to fix, override, or move away from it.
There is often something that becomes possible when experience is met in this way. Less tightening. More space. And from there, insight and inner knowing begin to emerge more naturally.
I hold a depth of presence in sessions that supports people to connect more deeply with themselves — beneath coping, managing, and the pressure to hold everything together alone.
My facilitation style is intuitive, grounded, and deeply attentive to what is happening emotionally, physically, psychologically, energetically, and spiritually.
Over time, my clients often experience greater clarity, steadiness, self-trust, and a more grounded connection to themselves and their lives.
I came to this work, like many people do, through my own healing process. After a significant period of inner work and healing, I found myself asking what I was here to do.
I had explored different paths to understand this — including career coaching, books, and other people’s stories — but I wasn’t finding the answer there.
At that time, I felt a calling to walk the Via Francigena pilgrimage route from Canterbury to Rome — over 2000 kilometres. My intention was to honour what I had moved through, but also to ask a deeper question: what am I here for, and to listen for what might come in response — from life, from soul, from something larger than myself.
What came through was a simple sense of wanting to help people find their way back to themselves and their own direction in life.
At first, I thought that meant learning how to coach or guide people through fear and limitation. So I trained, and began following that path.
But over time, I realised I was working with something more layered than that — something that includes emotional experience, the nervous system, and a deeper, often less visible level of what people are carrying and moving through.
That’s what led me into the way I work now — relational, intuitive, and able to meet people in the deeper places where things don’t make sense yet.
Over a decade of experience in the healing arts
I have over a decade of experience in the healing arts, including a diploma in holistic counselling, extensive apprenticeship and training in spiritual and energy-based practices, and trauma-informed facilitation.
My work has developed through study, apprenticeship, and lived experience into a depth-oriented, relational approach rather than a fixed or protocol-based method.
Before this work, I spent many years in corporate and leadership environments within structured, high-pressure systems.
This gave me a lived understanding of stress, burnout, and the experience of appearing functional externally while feeling internally disconnected or overloaded.
What Guides My Work
I understand human experience as layered — shaped by emotional, psychological, relational, nervous system, and energetic dimensions.
Often what feels like being stuck or overwhelmed is not something to push through or fix, but a point where your system is no longer able to hold things in the same way.
In my work, I support my clients to slow down enough to see and feel what is actually happening in their experience.
As this happens, there is often a gradual return of clarity, steadiness, and a more coherent relationship with self.
Over time, this can support a more grounded and self-trusting way of moving forward in life.
A little more about me
I live in Melbourne, Australia, with my husband and our cat.
When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me outside — birdwatching or mountain-biking, reading poetry or nature-based fiction, gardening or playing with paint or clay.
These activities feed my sensitive and empathic nature, and are an important grounding for my work.

“You taught me I was not only taking energy in (which I was conscious of) but also giving it out (which I was not conscious of). This alone saved me from the brink of mental breakdown.
I used this when exploring an opportunity. I could feel myself reaching out and I was able to bring it back to me. I will use this for the rest of my life. ”

“Kym is the most gifted counsellor I know. She has a unique set of skills that she has refined over years (if not lifetimes) including an incredible depth of presence and space holding, safety, sensitivity, and following process to meet each person exactly where they are at, unconditionally.
If you are a sensitive soul looking for more safety, relief, wholeness, or a renewed sense of self I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Kym as your guide. She is truly a magician!”
