Our counsellors are both culturally aware and sensitive women. They are experts in providing assistance, identifying issues, exploring options, and developing strategies for healing & increasing self-awareness.
For many women, just the process of telling their story and being listened to is helpful. We are passionate supporters of women’s mental health & wellbeing, and we are always ready to support those ready to explore their thoughts, feelings & behavioural patterns.
