As a dedicated Specialist Wellness Counsellor, with years of counselling experience, I provide a safe space for you to freely explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. I journey alongside you, helping you navigate life's complexities and manage personal challenges . My expertise lies in cultivating self-awareness and nurturing mental health. Drawing upon empathy, insight and life experience, I seek to empower you and help you discover untapped strengths. I offer a protected and compassionate container where you can explore your needs and unburden yourself in confidence and without judgment.
I use a person-centred approach incorporating elements of psychodynamic, narrative and solutions-focused therapy in my work. Together we explore your current situation, consider where you hope to be and craft ways to help you move towards your preferred future. We may also look at experiences in your past to help understand and address what is troubling you.
I am committed to providing affordable quality care. I offer counselling support for depression, burnout, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, personal management and emotional regulation skills, navigating transitions, suicide awareness and more. However, I am not permitted to diagnose or treat psychological disorders.
