Hello and welcome! Are you looking for a way to create change in your life? I provide counselling that is focused on solutions. My goal is to help you achieve the outcomes you want without needing to go over and over painful events in detail. I will help you clarify your goals and release feelings like grief, fear, shame and anger that may be stopping you from moving forward. So you can get on with living your best life. |

My approach
Before starting in private practice I worked for over twenty years in health and disability services, providing counselling and therapy support with people experiencing many different emotional, physical and health challenges. My particular area of interest is the impact of emotional stress and trauma on physical health and well-being. I am passionate about helping people to recover from stressful life experiences so they can cope more effectively and move forward in creating positive change in their lives.
My approach is focused on helping you establish goals and release painful emotions, stress or unhelpful beliefs that are in the way to you experiencing better health and happiness.
I use a combination of traditional counselling approaches including Solution Focused therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in combination with stress management techniques such as Mindfulness and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
If you are someone who prefers to express themselves creatively or has difficulty finding the right words to say how you feel then be sure to ask me about using art based techniques in your session. Being an Artist myself, I understand the power that art has in facilitating expression. Art provides a way to get to the core of the issue without necessarily needing to talk about the event or concern. No art experience is needed as the process is about self-expression rather than creating a piece of artwork.
