I’m a social worker and intersectional feminist. I grew up in the Huon Valley, and returned in 2021. I live, play and work here, with my cat, dog and partner. I love to read, crochet, garden, cook and sew. After years of being a Social Worker, in 2025 I became an Accredited Evidence Based Emotional Freedom Techniques Practitioner, and started my business, Tap Your Way Home.

My work lives at the intersection of trauma, emotional truth, and radical self-healing. For years, I supported people navigating complex trauma, anxiety, and the often quiet, isolating aftermath of family violence. In all of it, I kept seeing the same pattern: the world asks a lot from us but offers very little space to feel, or be safe.​

When I discovered Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), I was amazed and excited. It was gentle, it was powerful, and it worked. It helped me feel at home within myself, regardless of what was happening in the outside world. There are so many things we can’t control like systems, relationships, histories that have shaped our sense of what’s safe and what’s not. But one thing we can begin to nurture is a sense of safety within ourselves. Not as a way to ignore the world or pretend everything’s okay, but as a quiet act of care and reclamation. A place to land. A way to feel steady, even when things around us are not. Coming home to yourself doesn’t erase the harm that’s been done, but it can be a way to anchor yourself in the present. And sometimes, that inner steadiness is what gives us the space to imagine, demand, or create a bit more safety and peace in the rest of our lives. This is what Tap Your Way Home is all about.

Using Emotional Freedom Techniques (or tapping), Tap Your Way Home is a gentle approach that provides options for each individual depending on their needs and preferences. Talking about hard things that have happened to you is not needed to work with EFT to reduce the emotional intensity and burden of these events. It is a deeply grounding process, working with your brain and body in an integrated way to improve emotional and mental wellbeing. EFT works just as well with everyday stressors as it does complex trauma. 

My background in Social Work has given me the passion to always be working in a way that aims to make my job redundant. One session will help you start to increase the regulation of your nervous system, more will only add to this and expand your sense of coming home to yourself. You will be equipped with ways to support yourself after sessions. One of the things I love most about EFT is that it is not reliant on you seeing a practitioner to get the benefits. There are some things that you can’t do alone, but there is a whole lot that you can. EFT is a powerful and holistic way to support people therapeutically so that they can feel safe to connect with themselves, and empowered to tap their way home.
