Success coaching
Transform your life
after recovery or new beginnings
My success coaching program will help you remove limiting beliefs and achieve the goals in your personal life, relationships, or career you've always wanted to.
Whether you've overcome addiction or depression, or you're seeking positive change in life - we'll tap into the power of your subconscious mind to rapidly create the lasting transformational change you've been hoping for.
This isn’t just about any goals though. Genuine success comes from aligning your aspirations with your core identity, so we'll ensure they're a perfect match. While shifting your habits, I'll also teach you how to build focus, self-esteem, motivation, and commitment to ongoing transformation.
"Thinking, wanting, hoping and talking about change doesn’t help, engaging the power of the subconscious mind and your commitment makes change happen."

What is success coaching?
My success coaching provides you with structure and accountability to transform your intentions into actions. Just like life coaching, success coaching focuses on personal development, and the goals are more targeted to the areas of life where you want to excel.
It also has an emphasis on measurable results. Rather than just receiving advice, you also develop your own toolkit of practical skills and strategies to overcome obstacles or drive you toward your goals.
"We need to ensure that your goals resonate with your soul."
Setting success goals
Transformation begins with self-discovery so we’ll start by exploring why you’re stuck, or your drivers for change. We’ll also identify what's truly important to you - your core beliefs - only then can we know what your version of success is, and only then can we define the goals that will lead you there.
What kind 0f goals?
This is totally up to you and your authentic self, as long as they are realistic, tangible and have measurable outcomes - so we can build an action plan, with clear targets and time frames, to ensure you achieve your goals on time.

Engaging your subconscious
Another contributor to your success will be bringing your subconscious on board to do the heavy lifting. Through the Subconscious Dynamics™ approach you can access your deeper mind that is not influenced by long-held and potentially limiting beliefs. It’s also much more receptive to your new goals, and driving the necessary behavioural change.
This powerful approach is based on the Subconscious Dynamics™ model created by Alistair Horcroft of The Mind Academy. Its use also ensures that the transformational skills you develop during our sessions will be sustained and able to assist you for the rest of your life.
Progress & accountability
I am confident you’ll achieve your goals because we’ll keep you accountable and on track via regular self-assessment, and progress checks at the start of every session.
Be aware that changing your behaviour is not a quick process. It is gentle, gradual change that is successful and sustainable, continuing long after our coaching ends.
" I help you identify what's truly important to you then develop a realistic plan to achieve it. We’ll keep you accountable and on track for sustainable transformation."

Why invest in success coaching?
Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected from themselves, unsure of their purpose or unable to achieve their desires.
It is not until they are guided by me and my expertise in behavioural change that the perfect conditions exist to provide them with clarity, motivation, and ultimately success.
I’d be honoured to be your guide on the journey to your most empowered self.
"Unlike traditional coaching my approach ensures fast & effective results, with significant progress possible within 3-6 months."

-
Are your services for young people too?Yes. I help people of any age - teenagers, young adults, or older. If you’re a parent or carer looking for support for a younger person, feel free to reach out to me too. The same applies to gender, sexual orientation, nationality or background. My practice is open to and respectful of everyone.
-
Can I do sessions online?Yes. I offer both in-person sessions in Newcastle, NSW, and online counselling for clients across Australia and internationally. You can choose what works best for your comfort, schedule, and location.
-
What is hypnosis and how does it help?Hypnotherapy is a gentle approach that helps you relax deeply so your subconscious mind is more open to new, helpful thoughts, and behaviours and suggestions. It can support you in changing habits, cravings, and how you see yourself — without force or fear.
-
Do I have to take medication as part of your therapy?No. My approach is holistic and medication-free. We focus on natural methods, including talk therapy, life coaching, and hypnosis, to support your recovery. If you are on medication or working with a doctor, we can work together alongside that support.
-
How long does therapy treatment take?Recovery is a personal journey. For some, changes happen quickly; for others, it takes as long as is exactly right for you.’s a slower process. My job is to walk beside you and help you stay on track. Whether you’re early in your journey or have tried other forms of treatment, we’ll build a plan that works for you.
-
What is Subconscious Dynamic™ therapy?Subconscious Dynamics™ is a therapeutic approach that combines modern hypnosis with neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), to access the powerful subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is a powerful and neutral beast. By combining hypnosis with Subconscious Dynamic™ therapy we can bypass the overthinking conscious mind and delve into your deep mind, where you can rapidly address and rewire the brain for lasting recovery, growth, or change.
-
What does 'holistic therapy' mean?Holistic therapy means we look at all parts of your life—your body, thoughts, feelings, relationships, and even your purpose. Addiction, poor mental health and self-identity issues affect everything, so healing and growth should involve everything too.
-
Is this service just for drug and alcohol addiction?Not at all. While I provide drug and alcohol counselling for people struggling with drug abuse, and alcohol misuse, or any form of substance addiction, I also support people to resolve and eliminate other unhelpful compulsive behaviours and coping strategies - like gambling, emotional eating and screen addiction. If something in your life feels out of control, we can work on it together.
-
What are signs of alcohol abuse or alcohol dependence?Needing more drinks to feel the same effect Drinking alone or in secret Feeling anxious or irritable without alcohol Missing work, arguments with loved ones, or health issues caused by drinking Feeling guilt or shame after drinking—but still continuing Relying on alcohol rather than enjoying it
-
How do I get a loved one with addiction issues to seek help?This is a common situation. Start by approaching the person with care not criticism. Avoid confronting them when they’re under the influence, or calling them an ‘addict’. Share your concerns gently and focus on how their behaviour is affecting their health, relationships, or life goals. Offer support, not shame. If they’re not keen to commit to therapy, you can suggest doing one of my 15 minute free consultation calls to “get things off their chest,” or attending just one session. You could offer to join them if that makes them feel more comfortable, or even to book the appointment. Ultimately, you can’t force someone to change—but you can plant a seed, and be there when they’re ready. Many of my clients who once denied needing addiction help, came to me later, and made powerful, lasting changes when the timing was right for them.
-
Can I get drug and alcohol help online?Yes. I offer online drug and alcohol help across Australia, as well as in-person sessions in Newcastle, NSW. Online therapy is private, flexible, and a great option if you live regionally or prefer support from home.
-
What happens if I relapse?Relapse is common during recovery, and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. We’ll use it as a learning moment and adjust your plan to make it even stronger. You’ll have tools in place to bounce back and keep moving forward.
-
How long does recovery take?Everyone’s journey is different. Some people feel better quickly, while others need more time. Recovery is a process, not a quick fix—but with the right support, you can expect steady, meaningful progress.
-
Is this a rehabilitation program?While this is not a residential rehabilitation facility, my one-on-one therapy offers a personalised recovery pathway that is ideal for people looking for addiction help without going into full-time rehab. It’s flexible, private, and tailored to your needs.
-
When does alcohol intake become an addiction?In Australia, drinking is a big part of our social culture. At barbecues, parties, even casual get-togethers, it’s common to see almost everyone with a drink and an esky full of alcohol nearby. But alcohol intake can become an alcohol addiction when it starts to negatively affect your health, work, relationships or wellbeing — and when you feel like you can’t stop, even if you want to. Don’t wait until things get worse — early support can help you take control and stop the habit before it becomes a serious problem.
-
Why do you feel depressed or anxious?Depression and anxiety are the brain’s response to long-term stress, trauma, or imbalance. In depression, areas of the brain that regulate mood and motivation—like the prefrontal cortex and amygdala—can fall out of sync. This reduces important brain chemicals like serotonin and dopamine, making it harder to feel joy, energy or connection. In anxiety, the brain’s “alarm system” becomes overactive. The amygdala can stay on high alert, even when there’s no real danger. This can make ordinary situations feel overwhelming and exhausting.

What are the signs and symptoms of depression?Some examples are listed here, but see our How to Tell If You’re Experiencing Depression blog post for full details: Ongoing low mood or irritability Withdrawing from people or activities Feeling worthless or guilty Headaches, stomach pain, or other physical symptoms Thoughts of self-harm or suicide
