Profile

Are you a survivor of childhood abuse? Are you currently experiencing domestic violence? Do you not like what you see when you look in the mirror? Do you have any issues with sleeping?

If you have answered yes to any of the questions above, or if there is anything else you have going on in your life right now that you would like to speak with someone about, get in touch.

Long-term, short-term and time-limited (a set number of sessions) counselling and psychotherapy are available covering a large range of issues.

Your therapeutic experience with me will be confidential, supportive and empowering. You will learn how to use your power from within to move on from past trauma and deal with future challenges that life has a habit of throwing at us.

In addition to the 'traditional' talking therapy, you will also use creativity, imagery and learn to hear what your physical body is telling you, in addition to other techniques. These will all help you to become more self-aware, find your inner strength and become a Soulja!

The first session is free of charge.
