You might be confronting past trauma resurfacing in disruptive ways or struggling with establishing meaningful connections. You may recognise that your usual coping mechanisms are no longer effective.

In life, we face many challenges that affect us on different levels. These may include stress, chronic pain, depression, anxiety, trauma and many others. How we deal with these challenges is important so that we can be mentally and physically healthy and live fulfilling lives. Sometimes, we just need someone to lend an ear and other times we need a professional to guide us in our process of healing. When working with clients, I believe that each client has the internal resources that can facilitate change and that thorugh a safe and non - judgmental space this can be achieved.

Fairytales make us believe that love is easy. Typically there is a one fight, and then they live happily ever after. But real life relationships take a lot more deliberate action, conversations, and redefining of roles and needs to create lasting, happy connections.
