I am an experienced Accredited Social Worker, with over 20 years supporting women and mothers, with a focus on fertility, pregnancy, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, postpartum, motherhood, women's health and life transitions for the past six years.
I have additional training in Life Coaching, Matrescence education, Motherhood Studies, Women's Circle facilitation, Birth Story Listening and mindful early parenting group facilitation, along with training in various therapeutic modalities.
​
My approach is compassionate, evidence‑based, trauma‑informed, grounded in a strong knowledge, education and experience in perinatal, motherhood, womens health and life transitions.
​
Most importantly to me I am a mum of four, wife, stepmum and dog mum. I understand the many challenges (and joys) that come with motherhood.
I am also a mum with ADHD, parenting neurodivergent children, neuro-affirming practice is always front of mind.

Hi, I'm Brielle
Matrescence: the biological, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual changes that occur in our transition into, and throughout, motherhood. Matrescence is ongoing, not just when you first become a mother.
​
When you understand what matrescence is and start to explore your own matrescence you begin to have more understanding of your journey so far. You feel less alone. You can begin to let go of self-blame and feeling not good enough, let go of the 'shoulds' and start to create a life and motherhood that feels more fulfilling, and more aligned with your values and how you want to live.
