Hi, my name is Anne and I want to hear your story, heart 2 heart. If you are feeling down or struggling to keep up with life demands, challenged with relationships, feels like you are stuck at where you are in life, or if you are navigating issues involving recovery from past trauma, I am here to support you; all while providing a non-judgmental, gentle and professionally qualified therapeutic environment.
I am a client-centred therapist, which means that my therapeutical approach is driven by your life stories and your needs. I have over ten years of experience in the helping profession both locally and internationally. I am a culturally competent therapist who can integrate various modalities to suit your individual needs.
As life tends to get busy, we often find ourselves being neglected and burnt out. Therefore, my main aim is to assist you, who are unable to access therapy due to your hectic life and work commitments. For this reason, my practice is offered after hours and on weekends, ensuring, you have access to support at your convenience.
