I am a Counsellor, Coach and Psychotherapist. I am not a practicing psychologist. The main difference is that I work with people on their life problems and issues. Psychologists assist with mental health problems and look at a client from a more healthcare and medical model. I perceive my counselling and psychotherapy as being a more holistic and heartfelt approach to life.

Rapport means a great deal in counselling and the helping professions. I offer warmth, compassion, care and life experience. I am not somebody who has just had life experience out of a book.

Generally, the aim of counselling is to develop insight. It empowers people with their life choices. The counselling offered by me is a low cost, professional counselling service for a large range of difficulties or problems. All counselling with me takes place in a supportive, compassionate and non-threatening environment.

I have experience with assisting all manner of clientele.

Some of the problems I work with include:

  • Relationship problems
  • Couples and Family Therapy
  • Depression & anxiety
  • Performance coaching & counselling
  • Communication & interpersonal skills
  • Personal growth
  • Grief, loss and bereavement
  • Balancing work & family
  • Life transitions
  • Counselling for children
  • Cross cultural counselling
  • Recruitment & staffing problems
  • Conflict resolution
  • Ethical issues for counsellors and welfare workers
