About Mentoring
Couples' Mentoring
Couples' Mentoring is for partners that together want to find solutions for the challenges they are facing. Meeting challenges, big and small, is normal in a relationship. A foundation of respect is needed, and sometimes support is needed to move forward together in a healthy way. Couples' Mentoring can help you to create a union that allows you both to thrive. Often when negative patterns are present for one or both partners (almost always both!), some unresolved trauma needs to be addressed (see note on trauma below).
Business/Entrepreneur Mentoring
Business/Entrepreneur Mentoring is for new or experienced business owners or entrepreneurs that are needing comforting support and solutions during difficult times, or wanting to clear the way for success with certain goals. Or perhaps you want to assess the direction of your business/endeavour, help it evolve, or work through issues with staff or growth? Mentoring helps with any challenge that you wish to face head on and create positive solutions for. Often when these goals are proving difficult to meet, some unresolved trauma needs to be addressed (see note on trauma below).
Career Mentoring
Career Mentoring will help you if you are seeking to change careers, advance in your career or begin a new career as your study is finalised.
Parent Mentoring
Parent Mentoring will provide support and increased clarity as you face the many trials and tribulations of being a parent, or if you find yourself in any parenting-type role. Together we can look deeply into difficult behaviours of your child or teen, and help you create some positive solutions for these behaviours. Also we can look at defining, highlighting and strengthening your child or teen's unique strengths to help set them up for a fulfilling and meaningful life.
Teen Mentoring
Teen Mentoring is for teenagers that are ready to face and resolve hurdles or problems that they are meeting. Together we get to the root issue, and create some positive solutions so that they can live life and enjoy it. Also I help teens discover their own potential, and their own unique path forward in life.

A Note On Trauma
To resolve trauma you must face it head on, acknowledge it, choose how you'll respond to it, safely express your story, and process unresolved emotions (which keeps stress/trauma in the body and keeps it defended). There are layers to trauma, and the lower layers become buried and hidden. I use my Inner Wisdom Method to help resolve congestion held in the lizard brain and body caused by trauma, as well as disempowering programs that were created by the trauma and are now driving certain fear, anxieties, resistance and disempowering behaviour patterns.

What to expect
I will support you to access your inner truth, to expand, move toward your full potential and let go of what is no longer serving you. Mentoring and Counselling with me will further help you to fully align your mind, body, spirit and soul to your goals or your desired positive change, and free the energy in your body to flow as it is designed to.
All sessions run for one hour, via Zoom video call, or over the phone, and are therefore available globally.
Client Testimonials
" I was really struggling with a difficult dynamic with my daughters, and felt overwhelmed and felt I'd lost contact with my values amongst all of the stress happening within my family. Nicki was an artful listener, and in one session helped me to realign with my values and get clear on some strategies for facing everything going on in my life ". P.B, Melbourne.
" I have found myself over and over again in bad relationships. It's a pattern I realised I just had to break free from, so I started to see Nicki. I felt quite hopeless at times as I tried to figure out if I could salvage my most recent relationship. It was confusing and lonely, but Nicki helped me to stay true to myself and realise my worth. Thank you Nicki, for helping me to unravel and begin to change this horrible pattern ". A. R. West End, Brisbane.
" I am in the process of transforming my life. My job doesn't satisfy my soul, and I'm doing all I can to be able to leave it and do work that I love. Nicki has helped me to stay optimistic and keep moving forward and hold on to my dream, even when it feels super hard. I also have worked with Nicki on some relationship dramas that are ongoing, and it's helped me to get clearer on what I want and don't want ". K.W, Glenelg, South Australia
" My place of business was ruined in a flood, along with my home. I had a vision to relocate, but a few additional hassles were clouding my thinking and confidence. A few sessions with Nicki helped me to de-frag, vent some of pent up emotion, and get clear again on working toward my vision. I definitely recommend her wonderful services to others ". Sally M, Fig Tree Pocket, Brisbane
" I was referred to Nicki by my GP after the sudden and traumatising death of my partner. I was still very much in shock but knew I wanted to keep my ahead above water while I tried to process my new, unbelievable and distressing reality. Nicki has such empathy and I felt safe sharing all the gritty details of my life. She gave me a few practical tools to help me get through, and I am grateful I can seek out her support if I need it ". B.D. Toowoomba
" I was struggling with a toxic work environment and I felt I had lost myself and lost connection with my values. After just a few sessions with Nicki I was able to get clarity and a plan for moving forward and for changing my situation. I also was able to come to a level of acceptance with a complex, long term issue I have faced with a family member. Nicki listens deeply, I felt heard and something clicked for me, so that I could move on. I really enjoyed my sessions". S.T. Redcliffe, Brisbane
"I have been working with Nicki for a few months now. I know we still have a lot to work on, but I already feel so much calmer, better. Nicki is honestly such a beautiful human. She radiates serenity and kindness, even over zoom sessions, and she is extremely easy to talk to, to confide in. I know I will be a much improved person after working with Nicki and I am really going to enjoy the journey getting there". - J.T. Murrumba Downs, Brisbane
" Where to start?! I am heading into my third session with Nicki and I honestly can't wait to keep working on myself with her amazing guidance.
Nicki is warm and professional. She balances empathy and healing whilst managing to listen intently and really assist with prioritising what the body is saying.
I am thoroughly enjoying this journey and I trust Nicki to help me discover and overcome any hurdles I face, in order to live the life I deserve and aspire to lead. She helps me feel truly present in moments, both big and small. She is mindful that this can trigger an emotional outpouring - most times involuntarily and is patient throughout the process.
I encourage anyone to contact Nicki and see what it's all about. You won't regret it! ". - A.C. , Brisbane CBD

" I have a goal to start my own business - I'm unhappy in my current work place and have been for some time. I felt a lot of resistance and procrastination toward study, and so felt quite stuck and unable to make any changes to my situation. It turned out that some layers of old trauma were blocking me from being able to think of myself as capable of studying. I was also having some issues with my young son, that again my ability to cope with was being cut off by different unresolved trauma. I had no idea this old stuff was holding me back - I thought I had gotten over it already! I'm now enrolled in a course and can focus on my studies, and I know I will come back to Nicki if more roadblocks show up in my life ". Richard, Townsville Qld.
