Frequently Asked Questions

For many people, online support reduces barriers rather than adding them. It removes travel, waiting rooms, and the pressure of unfamiliar environments, which can make it easier to settle, focus, and show up as yourself.

Working online also allows support to fit more naturally into everyday life — at home, between tasks, or alongside the realities of energy, health, and capacity. For some, this makes support more consistent, accessible, and sustainable over time.

I bring both professional experience and lived understanding to this work. That means support informed by real knowledge of systems and processes, alongside an embodied understanding of burnout, neurodivergence, and fluctuating capacity.

Sessions are practical, ethical, and clearly bounded — collaborative and relational rather than clinical. You don’t need to explain or justify your experience, and support is shaped with attention to safety, pacing, autonomy, and the wider systems people are navigating.

Body doubling is a way of working alongside another person that supports focus, initiation, and follow-through through shared presence rather than instruction or pressure. The support comes from being accompanied — someone “being there” — rather than being told what to do.

For many people, body doubling works because it provides gentle co-regulation. Having a safe, predictable social presence can reduce stress, support nervous system regulation, and make it easier to start and stay with tasks that might otherwise feel overwhelming or stuck.

Body doubling can support executive functioning by externalising structure and accountability in a non-punitive way. It often helps with task initiation, planning, sustained attention, and completion — particularly when energy, motivation, or capacity fluctuates.

Many people also find that working alongside someone reduces shame or self-criticism around productivity. Tasks are approached with more compassion and realism, and progress feels more achievable when it happens in relationship rather than in isolation.

Over time, people often notice that the skills and rhythms developed during sessions — such as starting tasks, pacing themselves, or approaching work with less self-criticism — continue outside of sessions as well.

I currently work with self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. Sessions can be billed under different support categories depending on individual plans and goals.

Examples may include Core supports (such as Assistance with Daily Life, Social & Community Participation, or Supports in Employment) or Capacity Building supports (such as Improved Daily Living or Increased Social & Community Participation, Social Work). This list is not exhaustive.

My NDIS fees are the same (listed on pricing page) regardless of which support category or item is used. If you’re unsure what applies to your plan, you’re welcome to get in touch and we can discuss invoicing requirements together.

Feeling nervous about joining a group is very common, especially if group spaces have felt overwhelming, unpredictable, or unsafe in the past. I design group sessions to be calm, structured, and low-pressure, with clear expectations and optional participation as well as maximum four participants.

If it helps to take things one step at a time, you’re very welcome to book a free 15-minute 1:1 chat first. Many people find it easier to meet one-to-one before entering a group, so there aren’t too many new things at once.

Group spaces are guided by clear group guidelines, including firm boundaries around safety and respect. Racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, hate speech, or other forms of discrimination are not tolerated. 

It’s normal for moments of discomfort, difference, or uncertainty to arise in group settings, and these can often be worked through with care. This is different from situations that are unsafe or harmful. If something doesn’t feel right, you’re welcome to contact me privately by email or message, and it will be taken seriously.

Often, you won’t know until we meet — and that’s completely normal. Finding the right support is about fit, not correctness, and it’s okay to discover that something isn’t the right match. That isn’t a reflection on you or on me.

I also know that trialling support can be tiring and vulnerable. To make this easier, you’re welcome to take a low-commitment approach — by reading through this site, getting a general feel via my social media, booking a free 15-minute meet and greet, or trying a low-cost group session.

You’re never expected to commit beyond what’s useful for you. Any support agreement (where relevant to funding) doesn’t lock you into ongoing sessions — you book when it’s helpful for your needs only.
