Welcome to Arukah, where your well-being is the priority. As a clinical counsellor and family therapist, I focus on compassion, respect, and consistent support to address your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Whether you're navigating challenges alone, as a couple, or with your family, my aim is simple: to gently accompany you towards healing, recovery, and restoration.

At Arukah, my emphasis is on the relationship between counsellor and client. Taking a gentle, holistic approach, my aim is to guide you on a journey that nurtures your spirit, soul, and body. In my counselling practice, I uphold the belief that every individual is valuable and deserving of support. My approach encompasses various techniques, including integrating biblical principles when appropriate, to address all aspects of well-being, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual.

Initially trained as an accountant, I completed my Master's in Accounting and Commerce, and my journey changed when I prioritized raising our children. Amidst the joys of motherhood, I discovered my true calling to counselling, and thus my journey began. I started in Chaplaincy and then moved into college counselling alongside my private business, where I work with individuals across different age groups and backgrounds, as well as couples and young adults. I have had the privilege of working for a decade in the Education sector and continuing with my private counselling business.

I have enjoyed working with teenagers and children and offering parent support. Issues relating to anxiety, depression, self-harm, school refusals, conflict resolution, mediations, friendships issues, anger management, group work, separation anxiety, suicide ideations, subject selections, self-esteem, psychoeducation, liaising with external agencies and hospitals and risk management plans were part of the work and experience gained. Hence, in addition to working with children and teens, liaising with schools to support the student and the parent is available. Working closely with teachers to support the child was part of the role.

I am also passionate about working with couples and seem to get referrals of clients seeking marriage counselling from a Christian perspective, I also work with Individuals needing counselling, young adults experiencing life transitions and the migrant community experiencing any trauma/grief/adjustment issues from leaving the land they were born in to start afresh, I understand being a migrant myself.

I am currently serving on the board of a not-for-profit here in Perth, which is an honor and a privilege, and the joy of being able to give back to the community.

Caring for my mum, who was diagnosed with Dementia in 2012, has further shaped my understanding and empathy for the aged and the families facing their own hardships and griefs. It has also given me a better understanding and appreciation for the role of the carer in such difficult and painful situations. I have lived experience of being Caregiver.

I am passionate about being a Christian Counsellor and seeing how faith informs us as we navigate our lives. Christian Counselling is grounded in scripture, studies the whole person (Spirit, Soul and Body) and is a comprehensive, eclectic approach. I have completed all the necessary training to be an accredited Christian Counsellor. Psalm 23:3 has been pivotal to me on my journey to be a Christian Counsellor.
