Mental health is of key importance in our lives, when someone realizes this and wants to work towards improving their own: half of the heavy lifting is done. I am here to help with the other half, until you can do it all and more on your own. Sometimes, we just need a little support, someone to hear us and give us perspective; to encourage us as we face the challenges in our lives. An interesting life has many challenges for us to grow as we deal with them: we endure, we persist, we overcome and we celebrate.
My years of practice and artistic pursuits develop my listening, sensitivity and resilience. With an avid passion for effective and evidence based work, I use my reasoning skills to help in the emotional journey of counselling. In recent years, having faced personal crisis and having dealt with it has given me a new confidence in my human centered approach.
The right support is key. A good theraeutic relationship that nourishes us is based on chemistry and professional skills. So reaching out to find the right person is a huge step which all psychotherapists respect. The rewards from authentic therapy are very fulfilling for us all and we will always support you genuinly in making the correct decision.
