Do you feel stuck? Frustrated? Lost? Depressed? Are you struggling to find peace or make lasting change? Modern life is extremely challenging & demanding, taking a toll on our mental well-being & relationships. This can feel very overwhelming & isolating. I would like to support you in embracing your inner wisdom and strength, & give you all the necessary tools to develop, grow & overcome your suffering. My services include individual & couple counselling face-to-face & via Zoom.
I am able to support & guide you through life's challenges: Addictions, Anger, Anxiety, Career Stress, Confusion/Feeling Stuck, Depression, Despair, Generational Trauma, Grief, Loss, Relationship Conflict, and Trauma. I specialise in embodied & client centred awareness methods of Process Work and Polyvagal Theory.
Working with me is a collaborative process, where you are met with curiosity, acceptance, & presence. I accompany you on a journey inward to discover your wounded parts & begin healing. This is an individual process that unfolds through the doing. I will assist you in developing tools that arise from your lived experience through somatic techniques.
