Counselling in 3013

I know how daunting it can be to ask for help when you are struggling, but therapy can also be a highly rewarding and empowering experience. I'm here to listen and to help you manage difficult feelings as we work towards your goals together. I work with a variety of clients, and focus on helping those who are struggling with major life transitions. Many of the clients I work with are pregnant, or in the postnatal period, or are dealing with the demands of early parenting. Others may have lost someone close, or are going through a divorce or experiencing family conflict. The good news is that therapy can help with these issues.

Whether you've seen many therapists in your time or this is your first venture into the world of therapy and counselling, I would be humbled to assist you and to see if we are the right fit. Therapy is not a one size fits all situation, therefore I'll endeavour to ensure this process is not as daunting as it may seem. I see adults and young children, and my previous experience as a dancer and teacher brings forth a creative and playful experience to the therapy room, especially for my younger clients.
