Online counselling and grounding tools for women experiencing mental load overwhelm and stress
The mental load is the invisible cognitive and emotional labour required to manage a household, family, work, and life. It involves anticipating needs, planning, organizing, and making decisions—not just executing tasks. This constant "behind-the-scenes" thinking often falls onto women,
Over time this drains emotional reserves and overall wellbeing — causing burnout, stress, and relationship resentment, affecting energy, draining time, health and finances. It’s relentless and doesn’t switch off.
Ongoing mental load stress, overtime, keeps your nervous system stuck in a constant state of activation and causes a monumental cascade of physical, mental and emotional challenges.
What I help you do?
Together we unpack what drives your mental load stress, we develop a plan to regulate your nervous system and reduce life demands.

Testimonials
I didn’t realise how much I was carrying until I started talking about it. It’s helped me feel a bit calmer and not as constantly on edge.
Jenna R., Melbourne
I was used to just pushing through everything.
This gave me space to pause, and I’ve started to feel a bit more steady day to day. Emily, Byron Bay
