Meet Mim
I’ve always been a storyteller. And the number one thing that’s forever motivated me is connection.
I started out as a portrait photographer and journalist before discovering Narrative Therapy and building a private practice. It’s now been almost 7 years.
From the moment I opened my doors my inbox filled with inquiries from LGBQT+ adults asking if I offered couples therapy, which is something I’m very grateful for because it allowed me to very quickly discover my passion for couples work. Not long after, I went back to university to study Sexology and niche down into sex, dating and relationships.
In 2023 I received my AuDHD diagnosis and suddenly so much made sense to me. I realised that my lifelong intrigue and desire to study human relationships had been my autistic special interest all along. I’d unknowingly spent my entire 20s crafting a career around it, and I’m honoured to now be supporting other high-masking ADHD and autistic adults in their own self-discovery journeys.
More recently, I’ve gotten into standup comedy, sharing stories about the lessons I’ve learned as a late-diagnosed AuDHDer (while secretly also delivering sex and relationships education in entertaining ways).
Before becoming a therapist, I’d briefly worked in corporate communications, academia and the fitness industry, but I never felt like I fit in. It was clear that my heart belonged in the “arts”. I was more interested in the nuance, messiness and vulnerability of being human, fumbling our way through life. This is the area I love to support people - in deeply understanding themselves and building a life and the relationships that celebrate the many layers of who they are (not tolerate it).
