I offer counselling through reflective conversation, information sharing and guidance, I will provide you with the tools for change using brief interventions, solution focussed EMDR and motivational interviewing strategies. Tools can include: action plans, journaling, meditation, mindfulness practice, and breathwork to gain direction, insight, and self care. My approach may provide you with momentum and energy to seek clarity and vision your life differently.
