About me
Feeling stuck? At a crossroads in your emotional life or career? Even the strongest among us can feel lost, unsure, ambivalent, or unhappy at times. Using CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) & REBT (Rational Emotional Behaviour Therapy), I can help you understand and manage whatever life throws at you, I believe that you have the strength not just to survive, but to truly thrive.
