I offer a safe heart centred space to help my clients unpack at a gentle pace that suits them. No problem is too small to bring to counselling. Talking things through with a stranger can help find and bring resources and solutions into sight and is therefore "the gift of therapy". I work with clients experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship problems. Sessions can be weekly or fortnightly to match your requirements. I have a wide range of training and approaches such as choice therapy, Positive thinking, meditation, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and shamanism.

I have over 25 years of experience in Chinese medicine, and acupuncture treatment for overall well-being. I am a fully accredited psychotherapist, through 4 years of studying counselling and psychotherapy, which enhanced my empathetic understanding of my feelings and others. When Western medicine and philosophy meet Eastern, it allows Mind, Body and Spirit to emerge into ‘ONE’. I believe the change happens when we develop the awareness that we have the capacity “To know, To understand, To act differently”, and know “Imperfection is the Perfection” under a therapeutic relationship between us. Emotional Focused Therapy for Couples.

I believe in the power of healing. I believe in the power of therapy. I believe it can be very difficult to reach out and ask for help. I believe I can help, because I believe in peoples ability to change their lives for the better. I believe personal circumstances can make change seem a daunting task, but little by little, with the right support, it can be life changing. Why do I believe all these things? Because I was in a place where I needed healing and with the right person/people, I changed my life.
