Transforming how people communicate and connect – from workplace teams to family dynamics.

Hi I’m Karina.

Lovely to connect with you!

Few of us were ever taught how to communicate effectively –  yet it’s the very skill that shapes the quality of our relationships, the strength of our teams, and the connection we feel within ourselves. 

Communication is the heartbeat of human connection – the essential force that makes genuine understanding, meaningful relationships, and effective collaboration possible.

Let’s be honest… when our relationships are off, everything feels off.

You can be nailing it at work yet walking on eggshells at home,  or communicating pretty well with your partner and kids, while your workplace feels like a pressure cooker. From the outside, life may look “fine,” but internally, most of us are quietly struggling in one or more areas of our relationships. 

Communication touches every corner of our lives: the tone at the breakfast table, the tension in team meetings, the way we speak to ourselves when no one is listening. And while we all depend on communication, very few of us were ever actually taught how to do it well.

I work with individuals and organisations who understand that effective communication isn’t optional – it’s one of the core ingredients of effective collaboration, respect, and authentic, loving connection.

Maybe you want more cohesion and psychological safety in your team.
Maybe your home life feels strained, and you’re longing for more ease, understanding, and emotional closeness.
Or maybe you’re simply tired of feeling frustrated, resentful, or misunderstood.

Whatever brings you here, you’re in the right place.

I’m here to help you build the skills and the inner steadiness to communicate with more clarity, courage, and compassion. Together, we’ll work on both the outer frameworks – practical communication tools that really hit the mark – and the inner foundations: nervous system safety, updated beliefs, and rewired patterns that foster lasting change.

Because when we invest in learning to communicate well, everything shifts – the way we lead, the way we love, and the way we feel in our own skin.

2025 Wellbeing Magazine Article

Check out my work featured in the Wellbeing Magazine 

The focus of the article is about supporting families to move away from control-based parenting and toward deeper connection through self-awareness, compassionate communication, emotional understanding and discipline that guides without harsh punishments.
It explores how healing our own wounds transforms the way we relate to and raise our children, creating homes built on safety, respect, and attuned connection.

How we can work together

Tailored coaching and therapy

If you’re kind, sensitive and deeply empathic, you’ve likely spent years making sure everyone else is okay – often at the expense of yourself. Maybe you avoid conflict, feel guilty setting boundaries, or constantly walk the fine line between keeping the peace and speaking your truth.

Together, we’ll attend to your inner landscape and gently rewire what’s no longer working, so you can communicate with from a place of steadiness with more clarity and confidence.You’ll learn to express your needs without guilt, hold boundaries with grace, and create relationships at home, at work, and within yourself that feel honest, respectful, and deeply connected.

Talks, workshops and keynotes

From boardrooms to breakfast tables, I bring warmth, humour, and practical wisdom to the art of communication and connection. Blending neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and evidence-based communication skills, I help audiences not only leave with tools they can use straight away but also with a deeper understanding of how to access their own steadiness and internal safety and stability, so they can communicate with authenticity, clarity, and confidence.

When I first started working with Karina I was confused, uncertain and brushing many of my relationship issues under the rug. Straight away I loved the genuine warmth and down-to-earth approach Karina provided me, to help work through my problems. The family constellation work was a game changer in helping me to shed emotional layers, heal past traumas and gain clarity in my current life.

Karina has been the grounding guide I’ve needed to navigate and gain clarity around relationship issues, parenting and other areas of my life. I would highly recommend Karina’s warm, down-to-earth, knowledgeable, with a touch of woo woo, approach to help you navigate or heal any area of your life, particularly in regard to relationships and parenting, whether that be, partner, family or friendships.

I have had the pleasure of working with Karina in a one-on-one coaching capacity. Working together provided me with a toolbox of really practical and effective ways to manage the demands and challenges of family life, especially with young children.

She has also helped me understand that I am in the driver’s seat of my own life and that has proven to be an incredibly empowering journey. The relationship that I have with myself, my husband and my children have all blossomed and become more focused and enriched because of the awareness that I have gained from Karina’s coaching sessions.

She uses a no-nonsense approach to identify the challenge, strip it right back to the root cause and help heal and clear the negative programming. I cannot recommend her services highly enough. They have been deeply transformational for me and my family. Her coaching style has been the vehicle for me to be able to strive to live a more authentic life.

We were in a low place when we began working with Karina. Our life was dominated by our five-year-old son’s behaviour issues, which were unmanageable both at home and at school. Our relationship with our older daughter was also suffering, as was our marriage. We felt almost hopeless.

From the minute I met Karina online, I felt hope. In her warm, non-judgmental way, she assured me that our situation was not unusual and that healing our family was possible.

Her practical approach also appealed to my husband, who finally agreed to attend sessions with me. We began implementing the principles we were learning together and the effect was nothing short of miraculous. Within the first week, our son’s defiant behaviour had significantly lessened (his teacher even commented on his improvement). After a couple of months he became helpful, loving and co- operative and his issues at school dissolved. Both our marriage and relationship with our daughter improved out of sight and we began to realise that we’d moved from surviving to actually enjoying our lives.
Karina taught us skills that we use every single day, but more importantly, it changed our mindset around parenting and communication to one that allows us to experience so much more joy as a family.

When I think back to the chaos we were living in only nine months ago when our son was on the road to being diagnosed with ADD and ODD and our marriage was struggling, I am amazed at how far we’ve come. We’re not perfect and still have our issues but I now feel confident that we possess the skills and mindset to tackle all challenges that arise. Throughout this process, Karina has not only been our teacher, she has
become our cheerleader – celebrating every single tiny success and supporting us with new issues that arise. This is incredibly important work and Karina brings to it deep understanding, experience and empathy. Working with Karina is the best investment we have made in our family’s mental and emotional health, and the effects have been far-reaching. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
