Cut Off – What Now?™ brings together practical support, education and connection through support groups, one-on-one counselling, workshops and an upcoming retreat
How we can support you
Support Group
The Cut Off – What Now?™ Support Group is a professionally facilitated online group for estranged parents. It is a place where parents can get support from each other as well as engage in professionally facilitated conversations about the estrangement experience.
This group focuses on understanding what is happening, developing self-reflection skills, making changes where we can, and learning to let go of what is outside our control.
Counselling
Individual counselling for parents navigating the experience of estrangement from an adult child. A private space to talk with an experienced social work counsellor about what is happening and explore what you want to do next
Workshop
A practical online workshop for parents who want to better understand adult child estrangement and explore what they can do next. Coming soon.
Retreat
The Cut Off – What Now?™ Retreat is a specialist retreat for parents experiencing estrangement from adult children. Spend two nights with other parents who understand. It is a chance to create connections, share your story and take some time for yourself. You will have opportunities to learn practical skills and strategies for taking care of yourself while being with others who understand what you are going through.

About me
I am a mum of four, with one of my children choosing to estrange from the family. I also have professional experience as a social worker, working as a mental health counsellor and domestic and family violence counsellor. I care about people being healthy and happy, even when things are tough. I've worked with people facing all kinds of challenges, and I've seen how much difference having the right support can make. My aim is to provide a high standard of professional, non-judgmental, and compassionate care.
