Hi, I’m Indiana.
A counsellor who holds space for the parts of you you’ve learned to quiet.
I’m a registered counsellor and psychotherapist based in Melbourne, offering warm, grounded support for anxiety, identity, perinatal experiences, and relationship patterns.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and deeply human — centred on who you are, what you’ve lived, and what you’re longing for next.
Why I’m Here
Most people arrive in therapy knowing something needs to shift — even if they can’t name it yet.
Maybe you’re overwhelmed, exhausted by your own thoughts, or stuck in patterns that feel familiar but painful.
Maybe you’re going through a big life transition, becoming a parent, grieving a version of yourself, or questioning things you’ve always accepted.
I do this work because I believe you deserve a space where you don’t have to hold it all together.
A space where nothing is “too much”, where your feelings make sense, and where you are met with warmth, steadiness, and real presence.
I am a space for you to land be yourself, process what is asking to be heard or seen and become the version of yourself you want to be.
How I Work
People come to me when they’re navigating:
Anxiety and overwhelm
Relationship and attachment patterns
Relationship difficulties
Pregnancy and postpartum changes
Identity shifts
Burnout and stress
Low self-worth or self-doubt
Feeling “stuck” or disconnected
Grief
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.
You just need to be curious about yourself, or ready for something to feel different.
My Background
Clients often tell me they feel:
calmer as soon as they walk in
seen without having to over-explain
safe enough to be honest
relieved to not feel judged
understood by me and themselves in a way they’ve struggled to articulate
Got an aspect of themselves that has often felt hard to make contact with, incomprehensible and caused them pain
Our sessions are relaxed, conversational, and emotionally spacious.
You don’t need to prepare or “be on”.
Just bring yourself — even if that self feels messy, tired, anxious, or unsure.
That is enough.
A Little About Me
My therapy style is gentle but grounded.
I don’t lecture, analyse from a distance, or push you somewhere you’re not ready to go.
Instead, we slow down enough to notice:
what your body is holding
what your mind is protecting you from
what patterns are looping
what emotions need space
what you’re learning to trust in yourself
My approach uses incorporates several therapeutic modalities so I can integrate:
Relational psychotherapy — the healing happens between us
Somatic awareness — paying attention to what your body is telling us
Attachment theory — understanding your patterns in relationships
Emotion-focused work — connecting with what’s actually happening inside
But most importantly:
Our work is tailored to you — your pace, your story, your nervous system.
Who I Support
I am an accreddited Counsellor and Psychotherapist.
I’m trained in evidence-informed therapies and grounded in trauma-aware, person-centred practice.
Before counselling, I worked in communication and client-facing roles — experience that has shaped the way I listen, connect, and hold space with care.
I’m a member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) , and I follow strict ethical guidelines for confidentiality, safety, and therapeutic care.
What It’s Like to Work Together
I’m someone who values connection, depth, and honesty.
I’m endlessly curious about why people feel the way they do, and how we can gently shift the patterns that keep us stuck.
I believe therapy is both a science and an art — and that real change happens when we feel truly understood.
Outside of sessions, you’ll probably find me with a coffee, walking by the water, or spending time with my little family.
If You’re Feeling the Pull…
I would love to support you.
