As a Complex Trauma Professional, Level 2 Registered Counsellor and Lived Experience Practitioner, I accept clients with moderate support needs.
Together we can explore, impacts to daily functioning, stress and coping, relationship concerns, decision making challenges, present day impacts of past traumatic experiences, and much more.
I focus on the development of emotional regulation, communication and problem-solving skills to help you meet challenges, achieve goals, and regulate symptoms.
My holistic approach incorporates therapeutic techniques from PARTs/Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, DBT, and CBT
I aim to provide care tailored to meet your need.
Areas of concern are gently explored during counselling.
Skill development and problem solving are key goals of treatment.
Connecting with empathy and compassion brings understanding of the road travelled, whilst nurturing courage, hope and trust opens the door to learning, planning and action.
If you are feeling distress in your daily or corporate life, please don't struggle alone, I am here to help. To explore further, visit my website or call me for a free, short introductory chat.
Together, we can learn how "to be here and not there".
