I think it can be healing to be given a space with someone who wants to sit with you through challenging thoughts, emotions and experiences and offer understanding. I work with adults who are experiencing difficulties with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, grief and loss, identity issues, anger management, low self-esteem, coping and adjustment issues, parenting issues, well being and self care.
I've counselled adults for several years in various mental health settings and taught counselling in a Masters of Counselling at a Melbourne university. I offer clients a warm, kind and caring space. I think it's these qualities that create a safe, honest and genuine connection. With a relationship with these qualities, you can explore a better way forward.
I help clients to clarify their goals and then work together to develop strategies and navigate difficulties to achieve their goals. Through forming a strong relationship, honing in on strengths and drawing on evidence based treatment approaches, I work collaboratively with clients to enhance their wellbeing.
