Frequently Asked Questions

I work with families experiencing a wide range of behaviours; from meltdowns, aggression, and big emotions to everyday struggles like following instructions, transitions, or family routines. Together, we focus on the reason behind the behaviour, not just the surface response.

No, this isn’t therapy for your child. It’s coaching and guidance for you as the parent, so you can create lasting change at home. That way, you don’t need to rely on someone else long-term because you become the expert in supporting your child.

Some self-managed families choose to use their NDIS funding for this package. While I don’t provide reports for plan-managed claims, I can provide the documentation that self-managed families usually need, such as invoices and service agreements. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to check with your plan manager before booking.

I’m based in Adelaide, South Australia, but I work with families online across Australia.

No, a diagnosis is not required. I work with children based on their needs and behaviours, not on labels.

Most of the families I support have children aged 4–12, but the strategies we develop together often work well for both younger and older children too. The focus is always on giving you tools that fit your child and your family, rather than a specific age bracket.

Many of the families I work with have children with more than one diagnosis or complex needs. That’s not the barrier - it simply means we’ll take extra care to understand what’s happening for your child and build strategies that fit your family’s unique situation. The focus is always on what works in daily life, not just on labels.

You won’t be left on your own. As the 30 days wraps up, I’ll check in with you to see how things are going and what progress you’ve noticed. Many families feel confident to continue independently at that point, while others choose to keep working together. Either way, I’ll be invested in your success and we’ll decide on the next step together.

Not at all. My role is to complement therapy and supports by giving you the tools to create change at home, the everyday moments where behaviour happens most. I integrate the recommendations provided by other professionals.

It really depends; every child and family is different. Some parents notice small shifts within the first week, especially in how they respond to challenging moments. Bigger changes take time and build as the strategies are used consistently. The more you’re able to put the tools into practice, the sooner you’ll see lasting results.

Yes, that’s what my Breakthroughs promise is. I take getting results seriously! If you follow the plan and stay engaged, I guarantee you’ll see measurable progress in your child’s behaviour or your own confidence within 30 days. And if not, I’ll keep working with you until you do. That’s how I honour your trust and why I only work with a small number of families each month.
