Counselling done differently! It's important to me to take the 'clinical' aspect out of counselling, and I strive to provide a safe, non-judgement space to support my clients. You'll be welcomed into an understanding space that not only accepts but celebrates who you are, while building your unique strengths and resilience. My goal is to assist my clients to work through their thoughts and emotions to gain clarity as they move forward to their preferred future. I believe my job is to facilitate your own innate ability to grow and evolve.
While everyone’s reasons for seeking counselling are different, it’s often a time where you feel something needs to change. I’m here to help you navigate that process, including experiences of anxiety, depression, grief & loss, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, trauma, self-esteem & confidence, conflict, communication & fertility support.
As an active and proud member of the LGBTQI+ community for 20+ years, I welcome the opportunity to support allies and members of the community regardless of what stage you are at with your journey. Awakened Counselling is a safe space where all clients can talk through anything they like, in an open and honest discussion, with humour, support and empathy.
