Creative Counselling

Background
I have over sixteen years experience in counselling as a Psychologist and Family Therapist and have worked in a range of counselling services which include: domestic violence, women’s groups, men’s groups, children’s groups, and parenting groups. I have worked in schools and specialise in therapy with children and adolescents. I have also had extensive experience in dealing with work place conflicts and effective ways in dealing with management. I have been trained in Family Therapy and Transactional Analysis (TA).

Philosophy and Approach
I believe that each person has a unique purpose in life that their spirit needs to fulfill (whether it be on a small scale or something more grand), and as they live their lives and follow their dreams, needs and desires, their purpose eventually unfolds. However, when there are blocks that may be internally based or externally imposed then the spirit goes unexpressed and is often neglected. Unfortunately this may lead to depression, anxiety, health problems and other mental health issues.

Let me help you to UNBLOCK those forces that prevent you from being the person you were destined to be.

You deserve to feel inspired and excited about your life.

Types of Counselling and Therapy

General Counselling: From short-term solution focused approach to longer term counselling.

Individual Psychotherapy: Helping you to reveal those parts of yourself that contribute to making you feel ‘whole’ again.

Relationship Counselling: Couples therapy to rebuild fractured relationships or to help improve on an existing loving relationship.

Parenting Coaching: Who needs the Super Nanny?
Do you need some guidance when it comes to managing your child’s difficult behaviour? I can do home visits to get to the heart of the difficulties between you and your child, as quickly and effectively as possible.

Family Therapy: If you feel like there is dysfunction or disharmony within your family, why not consider having a session with your whole family?

Therapy for Children and Adolescents: Working with children and adolescents is a specialised field and it is very important to find someone who actually enjoys being around kids. Let me help your child to reach their potential and overcome their anxieties.

Life Coaching: Do you feel stuck with where your life is heading? I can help you by taking a holistic approach to all areas of your life, whether it’s work, friendship, personal ambitions or dreams, relationships, or just a personal ‘make-over’

Group Therapy: You can learn more about yourself in a shorter space of time in a group setting than you can one-on-one. Group therapy can be a powerful vehicle for change.
