About me
Private adult counselling
My ideal client is an adult unsure of where they are in life. They have reached a point where they do not know what lies ahead. They may be unhappy in their current relationship/job/marriage and are uncertain of which way to turn. They want to feel alive again and look forward to each and every day rather than finding life a tedious merry go round of work and chores. In short they want to get back to what they love. Life is uncertain, but there are areas of your life that you CAN control even if the world appears to be chaotic.
I can help unravel issues with clients. If they have the confidence to take hold of a thread and pull, they will be able to discover who they are underneath the labels that define them i.e wife, mother, sister, brother, husband, professional etc. You talk until you feel better.
Life is tough, there is no denying this and all of us hit a wall at times. It is what is on the other side of that wall that we can work out together. Each of you will have the answers buried somewhere inside you. It is my job to bring these answers into your awareness without judgement.
I use a combination of therapeutic techniques tailored to each individual's needs, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and other therapies. My goal is to foster resilience and promote healing by helping clients gain insight into their lives and experiences in order to make meaningful changes in their lives.
Why Work With Me? - Seeking help does not come naturally to a lot of people, but it is a courageous step. Working with me you will feel empowered and understood. In a strong therapeutic relationship, that I offer, you will have space for self exploration and personal growth. It is within this relationship that healing and transformation often occur.
