We all experience times when our ability to cope with what is happening in our lives is challenged, and simply put, we need help. Whether we are experiencing difficulty or conflict in our personal or professional relationships, or adjusting to changes that inevitably happen in life, counselling can offer short-term and dynamic interventions that enhance and support psychosocial wellbeing and personal functioning.
Drawing from a strong background in CBT, attachment theory, and developmental psychology, I approach counselling with curiosity for what makes us think, feel and behave the way we do. This type of enquiry leads to increased self-awareness and self-knowledge, which ultimately develops resilience and encourages emotional wellness.
In my counselling space, I foster a validating and supportive environment where you can feel empowered to confront your challenges, and initiate positive change. I invite you to invest in your personal wellbeing and to see where safe self-discovery can take you. I look forward to joining you on your journey.
