Counsellor Profile
I am a warm, positive counsellor committed to helping the client find the right pathway towards reaching their full potential in life. I believe that by understanding issues faced in life we can ultimately move forward with renewed and enriched perspectives. I am enthusiastic, caring and sensitive to others' needs. I have found my own pathway with regards to being a counsellor, which I love with a passion.
I am married and have three grown up children, 5 cats and 2 rabbits! I love the coast, the woods, wildlife, the sun and the sky, photography, rock music, and have a great sense of natural spirituality. I also have a great sense of fun!
