About me

Having personally experienced the effectiveness of counselling, I decided to train as a therapeutic counsellor. I chose Humanistic Integrative Counselling because the teachings were attuned to my values and beliefs.

Having worked in many different occupations and experienced various levels of responsibilities, traveled and experienced three different continents, I have learned a lot about people and their behaviours. In my life, I have gone through a variety of upheavals, from relationship breakdowns, traumas, addiction to meditation.

One time or another we are all faced with some kind of distress in our lives. So many variables affect us in the ever-changing environment we live in.

In dealing with various different challenges in our daily lives, we sometimes get stuck in solving a particular issue or issues. At that time we seem to become baffled and frustrated, not being able to decide what path to take.

We might lose the ability to trust our instinctive thoughts or feelings, un-enabling us to make appropriate decisions in accordance with our direct perceptions and desires.

Sometimes it becomes too difficult to resolve an issue on our own. It helps to share our difficulties with another person and as the saying goes 'two heads are better than one'.

Providing the ideal secure environment for you, to come and share your difficulties with a professional. Creating the right therapeutic conditions, where you can disclose and explore your difficulties. By effective listening, non-judgemental acceptance and being authentic, I would assist you in exploring your thinking processes and assessing your possible plans of action.

Areas of counselling I deal with

        Other areas of counselling I deal with

        Addiction

        I have also trained and worked as an Addiction Counsellor. Addiction can happen to anyone regardless of age, character, religion, education or social and employment status. No one purposely turns to addiction but it happens due to various reasons. It could happen due to traumas, distress or past suppression of feelings or emotions. Or it could be genetically linked to our parentage.
