Looking for a counsellor who can help you make real changes in your life? I'm also a clinical hypnotherapist and specialise in helping people make big improvements and adjustments in their lives- which all starts in the mind. If you want someone who is compassionate, listens and can work with you at your pace then you've found the right therapist. I am solutions focussed and thrive on seeing my clients achieve success (in whatever form that is for them). I'm NDIS-approved and work online and in-person in Newcastle, NSW.
As well as the usual counselling techniques I use like CBT, mindfulness, and tailored goal-setting, I also incorporate a range of tools into my practice such as NLP and hypnosis depending on my client's goals and preferences.
I enjoy working with people of all ages and I offer mobile services for approved aged care and NDIS clients.
If you're ready to work with someone who is going to passionately support you to get out of the mud and feel lighter again then reach out for chat. You can book a call through my website or leave a voicemail message and I'll call you back.
