Counselling in Frankston South, VIC

I create a safe and open space for my clients to therapeutically explore their issues, challenges and concerns. My ideal client is someone who is open to exploring the connections between their trauma and life experiences and how this has impacted their lives in positive and negative ways.

I am very conversational and my clients like this approach to discussing areas of concern to them.
