Welcome to The Authentic Counsellor
If you’ve found your way to my website, chances are, you’re curious. Perhaps you’re curious about yourself, your potential, or what lies beyond your current challenges. And that curiosity is a powerful thing.
But let me pose a question back to you: Is there a better version of you?
- You want better communication with people in your life.
- You seek more intimacy in your life.
- You believe there’s more to life than the people in your life taking you for granted.
- You desire better relationships with friends and colleagues.
- You want to set clearer boundaries.
- You simply want to feel at ease and comfortable in your own skin.
Yes, there is a better more authentic version of you. Together, we can embark on a journey to discover and nurture that version—a journey of self-discovery, healing, and transformation.

About Me
Hello, my name is Megan. My passion lies in helping individuals like you to live a life that’s true to your values and aspirations. Located in counselling practices in St Leonards and Narrabeen on Sydney’s North Shore & Northern Beaches, I provide a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your challenges and discover your path to personal growth.
My Approach
My approach to counselling is grounded in compassion, empathy, and collaboration. Together, we will uncover the root causes of your challenges and develop tailored strategies to overcome them. My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed to navigate life’s obstacles and thrive.
Why Choose The Authentic Counsellor?
Being authentic to myself means being my true self. The counselling experience with me will help you get to know your authentic self. Together, we will explore how your past influences your present. As an individual or as a couple, we will examine how your upbringing shapes your relationship. We often try to be everything to everyone and forget to be our own person.
In my work with couples, I view the relationship as having three to four components: you, your partner, the two of you together, and, if you are parents, your roles as parents. Each person must take responsibility for their individual part in the relationship as well as their own personal growth.
Get in Touch
I would love for you to consider me as your partner on this journey of self-discovery and transformation. Whether you’re seeking to improve relationships through better communication, connection, and intimacy, dealing with anxiety, stress, or grief, or simply looking to unlock your full potential, I am here to support you.

Most people think therapy is in an office or online. With my NDIS clients, I have found helping them with their Anxiety and or Depression is about getting them outside, chatting in environments that they enjoy. My client today loves gardening so we walked and talked in a couple of gorgeous nurseries on a lovely Sydney spring day. #sydney #spring #ndis

Being authentic means embracing your true self, expressing your unique perspectives and values, and living a life that aligns with your deepest desires and passions.
Dear Megan,Just a quick note of gratitude and a little thank you, for your assistance with the delivery of your group on Anxiety.I am really enjoying the subject and appreciate all your time and energy in the execution of the workshop.
Megan has been my dedicated counsellor for nearly two years, providing consistent support and guidance. Her empathetic nature, active listening skills, and commitment to fostering a trusting therapeutic relationship have significantly contributed to my personal growth and well-being. I appreciate her professionalism and the safe space she creates for open discussions.
Moreover, her new place in St. Leonard’s is lovely – spacious, clean, and cozy. It enhances the overall therapeutic experience, creating a comfortable environment for our sessions. Megan’s commitment to both the quality of her counselling and the atmosphere of her space makes her an invaluable asset to anyone seeking support on their journey.
