As a highly skilled and compassionate counsellor with years of experience in helping individuals heal from trauma, I bring a unique and empathetic approach to my practice. I am deeply committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients to feel heard, validated, and empowered on their journey towards healing and recovery. Over the years. I have worked with diverse populations, including survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and relationship difficulties. My diverse background and extensive training have honed my skills in various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
The purpose of counselling is to help you understand the reasons for presenting feelings and actions, and learn coping skills I understand that trauma can deeply impact an individual's emotional, psychological, and physical well-being. Therefore, I adopt a holistic approach that takes into account the unique needs and strengths of each client.
My counselling style is empathetic, non-judgmental, and collaborative. I strive to create a trusting and therapeutic relationship with my clients, where they feel comfortable sharing their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I work collaboratively with my clients to develop personalised treatment plans that are tailored to their specific needs and goals.
