Renate provides a collaborative person-centred approach to her support, counselling, therapy and supervision. As a client of Renate's, you will be wanting to explore and understand your situation and circumstances. Renate will offer warmth, support, guidance and facilitation, as you understand what is possible in the change process and what is about adding in, or finding other ways to accept situations that cannot be changed. Her approach is explorative and well-informed and focuses on you, and reclaiming the parts of you that may have been forgotten or overlooked.
Renate is privileged to assist individuals, families, colleagues, groups & communities in making changes, facing adversity and shaping lives and practices. Her areas of expertise include relationship & family therapy, loss & grief, managing mood & feelings, trauma, relationships, personality, esteem & and identity, life stage difficulties and transformation.
I am a committed, caring, future focussed therapist. My approach & therapeutic strength is to develop and guide others- colleagues, students, supervisees or clients. It is my privilege to work with others to assist them to make changes, realize potential, whilst noting and holding what is difficult and offer alternatives to what cannot be altered.
