Qualified and experienced Counsellor and Clinical Supervisor specialising in treatment for a broad range of people from adolescents to adults of all ages.- If you are struggling with Mental Health (Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Mood Disorders, ADHD) - Addictions (Drugs, Alcohol, Gambling, Sex, Gaming, Work and Eating Disorders) - Trauma (Childhood Physical, Emotional and Sexual Abuse) - Grief and Loss (Unresolved Grief and Empty Chair Work Therapy) - Co-Dependency in Relationships (Conflict, Boundaries and Communication Issues) then I have the skill set to help you overcome these challenges if you are willing to do the work.
As a counsellor I offer a safe and non judgemental space to support client's to be vulnerable, process trauma, work through life challenges and build a toolbox of support skills to enhance healthy self-esteem, boundaries, emotional regulation, assertive communication, relapse prevention and healthy relationships to achieve meaningful change and self-agency.
Life is full of difficulties but often our difficulties are a result of patterns that were developed in childhood. I can help you explore behavioural patterns that keep reoccurring and develop the skills and build tools to make more positive change in your life. Change occurs when you are willing to face your fear and I am able to help you get there.
