About Me:
I have been a perfectionist, people pleasing, good girl and I know how strong those habits are, but I also know how amazing life can feel when you finally let them go. Let me help you to do just that with my 1-1 coaching and therapy. Because you deserve for your life to be happier, healthier and emotionally more manageable.
Hey, I’m Ria — therapist, emotional health coach, and fellow recovered ‘good girl.’
I spent years being the “good girl.” The one who said yes when she meant no. Who kept it all together on the outside while crumbling inside. Who strived to be the perfect mum, partner, daughter, employee, friend…and lost sight of herself in the process.
Sound familiar?
I know what it’s like to live in the loop of self-doubt, people-pleasing, and never feeling quite enough. I also know how life-changing it is when you finally let that weight of expectation. And now? I help other overwhelmed, perfectionist, people-pleasing mums do the same, because I know how life changing it is.
I’m not here to fix you, because you’re not broken. But I will help you unlearn everything that’s been weighing you down and keeping you stuck, because these habits that once served you, just simply do not work once you become a mother.
So rather than fight against them, we are going to slowly let them go, in a way that feels safe.
My approach is calm, compassionate and no-nonsense.
I’m trained and certified in CBT, Hypnotherapy, NLP, Trauma, Applied Psychology, Positive Psychology and Journal Therapy, but more than that, I’m someone who gets it. Not just professionally, but personally too.
In 2024, I became a single mum to three little ones, all now ages 9 and under. While navigating separation, parenting solo, and running my own business, I didn’t just “power through,” I used every tool I teach to stay emotionally steady and mentally strong. And let me tell you: that stuff really works.
Now, I help mums like you create breathing space in your lives, understand the roots of your stress and overwhelm, and rebuild your emotional wellbeing, without the guilt or the grind.
I’ll be in your back pocket as you:
Let go of perfectionism and the mental load that’s burning you out
Ditch the good girl conditioning that’s holding you back
Stop people-pleasing and start prioritising you
Learn to love and trust yourself (even when life’s messy)
Because motherhood isn’t meant to feel like drowning in invisible pressures and expectations. And happiness isn’t something you earn by ticking every box, it’s something you create by choosing yourself, time again and time again.
Right now you are stuck between relying heavily on your perfectionist habits to keep you going and for life to feel under your control, and wanting to be rid of them so that you can feel emotionally more balanced, and mentally more at ease, but you’ve no idea where to start or of it’s even possible.
You want to be able to enjoy your motherhood journey without it all being lost in a blur of worry, doubt and overwhelm, and I am here to help you do just that.
On a more personal note…
When I’m not helping women to save their sanity, you’ll find me in a bookshop, drinking coffee, walking, listening to podcasts, picking up cushions off the floor, finding peoples socks, or out on fun adventures with my three small humans - we love a weekend away to the beach.
I believe women, especially mums, are unstoppable when they have the right support and get their sparkle back. If you’re ready to feel more emotionally steady, mentally clear, and just a bit more like you again, I’d love to help.
Even if you feel like you have been driven off course recently, or life keeps knocking you backwards, you can bounce back and life can be easier than it feels right now.
I am your coach if you're ready for a big life reset.
