Real. Raw. Radical.
PSS. without the bs.
WHAT IS PSS?
Bold, results-driven and evidence-based solutions for women, men, couples, families and businesses.
PSS is about real connection and change without the BS. No pop psych fads, no hand outs or fluff - just real, raw and radical innovative solutions. Whether βforcedβ to seek change from crisis or frustration of stuckness, PSS can help shake things up.
Whether youβve hit a crisis or are simply frustrated by feeling stuck, PSS offers the radical shifts you need to break free and get back on track. PSS is about real lasting change. We do solutions not sessions.
Our Approach.
Using a life audit approach developed over 15 years of counselling and psychotherapy practice cuts through the βfluffβ, βpseudoscienceβ wellness warrior and positive thinking BS common in todayβs coaches and counsellors.
Our focus is on real, evidence-based techniquesβgrounded in science and designed for real-time application. This approach empowers you to take control of your life, break through the noise, excuses and patterning to forge ahead and make real progress.
PSS encourages you to take a step back and see your life through a broader lens. Itβs about taking radical responsibility, challenging your beliefs and narratives, and transforming deep-seated triggers and reactive patterns. Instead of reacting, youβll learn to respondβmindfully, intentionally, and in alignment with your true self.
PSS also encourages you to consider the holistic impact of your physical healthβdiet, gut health, movementβand how it influences your mindset, mood, and psychological well-being.
Maybe youβve tried everything: pilates, journaling, intermittent fasting, or exploring spiritualityβbut still feel angry, reactive, or unfulfilled. Perhaps youβre disconnected in your relationship, uninterested in intimacy, or questioning whether youβre truly satisfied with your life. If youβre navigating perimenopause with symptoms like irritability, weight gain, or a complete shift in your emotional state, itβs easy to feel overwhelmed. Is it life circumstances, the people around you, or a deeper sense of dissatisfaction with yourself? If you're doing all the right things but still feel off-track, it might be time for a deeper look.
Thatβs where PSS comes in. We help you cut through the noise, uncover the truth of what's really happening, and develop strategies for lasting change. Whether itβs your home life, relationship, career, or personal growth, PSS gives you the clarity and tools to take control and create the life you want.
Offering a range of different 1:1, couples, family and group sessions as well as online self paced workshops, PSS has a solution right for you.
