KIM HURTER
Counselling psychologist, life coach, and breast cancer survivor, Kim brings two decades of experience supporting people through life decisions, career pathways, and personal growth. Her warm, holistic approach fosters connection, agency, and a sense of ownership over one’s journey. Through her private psychology and coaching practice, she supports primarily women and cancer survivors in reconnecting with themselves, rediscovering their strengths, and healing as whole persons. She also works with high school learners in making informed career decisions and developing healthy academic habits to successfully navigate school, extra-curricular and life roles and responsibilities. Her work is rooted in compassion, holistic wellbeing, and the belief that healing extends beyond medical intervention and is possible for everyone.
CAREER ASSESSMENT & COUNSELING
Choosing the right subjects and career path can feel overwhelming. Career assessment and counselling provides a supportive, structured process for learners to understand their values, interests, strengths, personality and career possibilities. Using discussion, psychometric assessment, and personalised guidance, learners gain greater self-awareness and clarity to make informed subject and career decisions. The process aims to build confidence and equip learners with the insight needed to plan meaningful educational and career pathways aligned with their unique career aspirations and potential.
ACADEMIC COACHING
Academic coaching provides personalised support to high school learners who feel overwhelmed, unmotivated, or uncertain about managing the demands of their studies. Through a collaborative and practical approach, learners develop effective study habits, time management, organisation, goal setting, motivation, and academic resilience. Coaching also helps learners better understand their learning process, identify barriers to success, and implement strategies that improve confidence, wellbeing, and academic performance, empowering them to navigate their educational journey with greater independence and success.
CANCER SUPPORT & SURVIVORSHIP FOR WOMEN
A cancer diagnosis can bring significant emotional, physical, and lifestyle challenges. Cancer support and survivorship provides a compassionate, person-centred space for women navigating diagnosis, treatment, recovery, and survivorship. Combining evidence-based psychological therapies with practical coaching, lifestyle medicine, and somatic approaches, support is tailored to each individual's needs. Sessions focus on building resilience, managing stress and uncertainty, promoting emotional wellbeing, and developing sustainable strategies that enhance quality of life and support healing throughout the cancer journey.
CANCER CARE & SURVIVORSHIP WORKSHOPS
Cancer survivorship workshops provide a supportive, educational space for individuals navigating diagnosis, treatment, recovery, and life beyond cancer. Grounded in an integrative, complementary oncology approach, workshops combine lifestyle medicine, psychological wellbeing, mindful awareness, and evidence-informed practices to promote whole-person health and resilience. Where appropirate, workshops are delivered in collaboration with professionals from evidence-informed complementary health disciplines, broadening participants' awareness of supportive care options within a research-informed framework. Through education, reflection, and shared experiences, participants gain practical strategies, connection, and confidence to live well beyond cancer.
