Over 20 years experience has enabled me to offer key therapeutic and coaching support to local and international clients dealing with: life and work challenges, couple counselling, divorce recovery, loss, anger management, procrastination, stress and low mood, life stage transitions, adult ADHD, difficult conversations, etc
Therapy and Life Coaching. Life is full of both practical and emotional challenges. If you are finding that insight alone is not moving you forward, you may need to focus more on Life Coaching and behavior change. If you need deeper insight into why you are stuck or why you do or feel certain things, you will need to lean more into Therapy for deeper work. Most often we need a combination of both at different times for progress and lasting change.

I offer counselling and therapeutic life coaching. Clients will come to me with a range of problems and often feel some confusion. In our work we will clarify the problem and see what is most challenging for you at the present time. We will discover where this confusion arises in the body and mind and be able to see what started it. Perhaps this has been triggered in the past: by an environment, people, a person, upbringing etc. The work we do is non-judgemental and my purpose is to help you find your way out of the confusion and suffering, so you can find success, purpose and meaning in your life. I will be with you all the way

There are times in life when we feel stuck and there seems to be no way forward. You might struggle to concentrate, feel anxious and stressed all the time, lie awake at night, and get angry for no apparent reason. You might also experiences more severe symptoms like phobias, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance abuse, self harm, eating disorders etc. The reason might not be apparent, but sometimes it might relate back to unresolved traumatic experiences you've had growing up like bullying, sexual abuse or rape, family violence, sibling rivalry, parents divorce, death of a loved one.

My ideal client would be someone who is looking to discover their true self and potential. At some point in your life, you've perhaps felt invalidated, judged, or misunderstood by others (or even yourself). Perhaps you're neurodiverse and are looking for guidance, understanding, compassion, and support. You want to become comfortable with and accepting of who you truly are. You're willing to put in the work both inside and outside of the therapy room to achieve your goals.

You may be struggling in relationships, finding it hard to regulate your emotions, or feeling the ongoing impact of past experiences. You might notice yourself getting triggered, shutting down, or reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you want to be—even when you understand what’s happening. Therapy offers a space to slow things down, make sense of these patterns, and begin shifting them in a way that feels meaningful and lasting.

I believe each of us has the capacity to be happy and fulfilled, both in our individual roles and as part of relationships, and especially the relationship with our primary life partners. However sometimes complications happen and we loose track. But we all have a smart inner wisdom which can be trusted to put the parts together again, sometimes with help.

Anger Management Counsellors
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.

How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.

Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
