Most advisors solve the problem. I find the source of it.
I am a woman who has spent 23 years inside businesses. As a COO, a founder, a crisis communicator, a strategic consultant.
I watched a global financial crisis happen from inside the London press office of Lehman Brothers. I built a creator technology app during COVID and watched an entire economy reshape itself in real time. I founded a business, raised millions, and learned what it really costs. I ran a drone manufacturing company and kept a team of engineers and pilots from failing in one of the most highly-regulated industries in the world.
I have sat in the rooms where things fall apart, and I've been in the rooms and sheds where things are being built from scratch.
And through all of it, through every crisis, every rebuild, and every impossible situation, I was navigating the same invisible weight that you might be carrying right now. The mental load. The identity shifts. The version of myself I kept putting last because everything else felt more urgent.
And then I did the deeper work. On myself, for myself.
Two hundred hours of Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Hypnosis. The Enneagram. Not because something was broken, but because I wanted to understand what was running underneath. In people. In systems. In me.
What I found changed everything.
I found the version of myself that had been waiting for me to unlock it completely. The one that wasn't performing, managing, or holding everything together for everyone else. The one that knew exactly what she wanted and had simply never been given the space to say it out loud.
And this is what led me to Source Work.
I work with people who are successful by every measure they currently have. They have the degree, or the house, or the partner, or the job, or the body. They have the “thing” they were striving for, the success they were aiming towards. And yet something feels just out of their grasp. And this is when they know there is something deeper, waiting to be unlocked.
This is intelligent depth. It's rigorous, it's real, and it goes where most advisors won't.
I give you the space, without asking you to drop a single thing you’re responsible for.
My name is Cortney Thomson. And this is my life's work. Source Work.
The Deep Work
-
This is the one-on-one session between you, me, and the work.
What work? Well…you come with an outcome, and the rest we uncover together.
Your outcome can be anything from "I want to stop feeling like I'm drowning in my own life" to "I want more energy to live life to the fullest."
Perhaps you're in the middle of something - an ending, a beginning, a loss, a transition your body knew about before your mind did. Perhaps you've simply reached the point where the way you've been living stopped working, and you don't yet know what comes next.
We start where most conversations would usually stop. Beneath the story. Beneath the version of yourself you bring into every other room.
We find the pattern that keeps running. And we change it.
You will leave with certainty you can act on, decisions that are genuinely yours, and a way of living that doesn't cost you everything to sustain.
This is not therapy. This is not life coaching. This is something most people never get access to, because most people never find someone who can hold this kind of depth with this kind of rigour.
-
We begin with a single session. Seventy-five minutes, just the two of us. No agenda imposed from the outside, and we go where the work needs to go. By the end, you will know whether this is for you.
Most people continue with a pack of five, six sessions in total including your initial consultation. Enough to go deep, find what's running underneath, and begin to change it at the source. Most clients find themselves somewhere genuinely new by session six.
All sessions are able to be conducted via video call, at a time that works around your life and your responsibilities, however I do offer in-person sessions in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
-
Initial Consultation: 75 minutes, $499
Five-session pack: 5 x 45 minutes, $1,200
Single follow-up sessions: 45 minutes, $250

This practice runs on referral. If you've found your way here, someone who knows us both sent you here, and that matters. So now you take the first step and ask “tell me more”…
