Do you need or want to change your life? It has been my privilege to have facilitated the recovery of many amazing and determined individuals who have been courageous enough to face the challenges of; "Who am I? Where do I belong? What do I do next to find my purpose? If you are confronted with relationship problems, anxiety, depression, career indecision, grief or substance use, I can help you assess your strengths, develop a plan and support you in your journey to find contentment and happiness.
