I mainly work with clients who suffer from anxiety and/or depression. These two illnesses rob a person of so much of life - it is wonderful to start shifting some of the symptoms and bring back a sense of joy. Together, my clients and I work on what a happier life would look like, and what is needed to get there. We usually do this by looking at strengths and values, and by exploring underlying beliefs that may hold you back. It is an in-depth look at what makes you who you are.

I believe that through counselling we can gently cultivate the necessary conditions for personal growth and nurture our potential to be the best version of ourselves. The goal of therapy is to heighten one’s awareness in order to provide a choice in doing something differently.
