Welcome to Healing Phase. I provide individual & relationship counselling (in private practice since 2014). I embody the principals of non-violence, relational alchemy & organicity in my work. My broad training, experience & skillset helps me to be flexible in the style & focus of therapy, based on one's individual needs. Ultimately, I create a safe & nurturing space for people to realise their most authentic selves, from which they can notice, understand & attend to their adaptive patterns & parts of self - on the journey towards more peace & a better quality of life. I welcome you to view further detail via my website.
I help enhance one's capacity for: Containment / self regulation; Mindful exploration of their patterns of experience (i.e., around repeating triggers, themes & issues); Understanding of their behaviour, reactions, tendencies & beliefs; Processing of traumatic material & / or attachment themes; & Enhancing their resources, adaptability & overall functioning.
It is my experience that people embark on the journey of counselling to reach the most authentic experience of being – as balanced, agile, safe, connected, confident, peaceful & playful human beings. I welcome you to make contact & to ask any questions that might help you decide if I am the right Counsellor for you. Sending you best wishes for your journey.
