Accepting New Clients - Clients are brave to come to the counselling arena" I can offer over 20 years of counselling experience to assist with a deeper understanding of self. Counselling can provide shifts in perspective that can help alleviate suffering and increase coping skills in life. Through a greater understanding clients can start the healing process towards a stronger sense of healthier happier self by overcoming past hurts and refocusing on the hear and now.
Clients grow and learn through a combination of psychotherapy, assessments, strategies and practice to implement learning/changes to help in becoming their best self
I understand that the harsh self-criticism and negative self-talks can be so debilitating. The behaviour is all to familiar because of the critical environment we experienced earlier in our life. I can assist in helping to notice, identify triggers and correct the unhelpful self-judgment and start letting go of the needless suffering.
