Hebrew Counselling in Boronia, VIC

As a counsellor with over 15 years of experience, I understand that life can be challenging sometimes, and we can lose our way in it. I treat my clients with warmth, empathy, and unconditional support, giving them the space and confidence that they need to walk through the pains of their growth and once again find their love for their true self.

In my work with clients, I prize the relationship we share as the vehicle through which treatment and change occurs. Through this relationship, we endeavour for therapy to be a space whereby a collaborative understanding of what has brought them to this point in life may be developed. Indeed, I believe that it is from this place that we may then work to develop a pathway forward to treat what is present, foster and deepen insight, and muster compassion to hold the fullness and uniqueness of each individual with deep appreciation and care.
