Do you wonder whether your goals and aspirations have been influenced by society? Perhaps if you were truly living for YOU, your goals would look quite different. Anxiety can dominate our lives until we start uncovering what we truly want out of life. Radically accepting yourself - and understanding your true desires and values - can set you on a more meaningful and fulfilling path. Looking at our issues in a Holistic way allows us to understand ourselves better, which fosters self-compassion.
I am inclusive of diversity, including Cultural diversity, Intersectionality, Step-parenting, Mental Health Counselling, Carer Counselling. LGBTIQA+ questioning, Rainbow families, Intersex variation, Working with Interpreters, Polyamorous relationships, Grief and Loss (including retirement, separation, pets)
I believe effective counselling adapts to each person/family. I believe we are all perfect in our imperfections; and I work to help people embrace their authentic selves, so they can thrive with lives challenges. I pride myself in authenticity, being open-minded and non-judgemental. https://flowstatecoaching.square.site/
