Generally no. Boundaries are good. So, if you have engaged me as your counsellor, I can't be a part of your celebrations.

I also, do not counsel clients that I have conducted services for.

This extends to your families, so if I am seeing you as a counselling client, I won't be your daughter's celebrant.

Life sometimes gets murky (especially in a place like Wollongong where it can feel everyone knows everyone) and I may be conducting a wedding where you are a guest. In these instances please be assured that I will maintain privacy and will not acknowledge our relationship.

Both focus on people, significant life-events and emotional wellbeing.

Both counsellors and celebrants provide emotional support. Counsellors help individuals navigate personal challenges, while celebrants support individuals during major life events like weddings, funerals, and naming ceremonies.

Both professions deal with life transitions. Counsellors assist with coping strategies during major changes, and celebrants mark those changes with ceremonies that honour and celebrate new beginnings or provide closure.

Both roles require a personalized approach tailored to the individual or family's needs and preferences.

I am located in "The Heart" of Wollongong at 44 Atchison Street. I also provide counselling as walk and talk or online.

Life can be long, and the Illawarra can be small. So, we may have bumped into each other along the way.

If you are looking for Celebrancy services. Yes! Hit me up! I love being a part of people's life affirming events! Please don't ask me for a discount as if I provided a discount to everyone I have met, I would be working for free!

If you are looking for counselling services...No.

Counselling should be free of baggage and should be a safe space for you to explore without your counsellor having any pre-conceived ideas of who you are.

So, if we have performed together, worked together, learned together or if I am your best mate's cousin....try one of the other excellent counsellors in the area.
