My Services

Facilitating change includes creating a safe space in which healing can take place. Creating a safe place, and being present, allows us to explore our thoughts and feelings as they arise, and helps to reveal patterns that have been in place, often for many years, often as an out-grown protection, and which may appear in some of the following ways:

  • Anger
  • Anxiety & Panic Attacks
  • Communication challenges
  • Confusion
  • Depression
  • Family and interpersonal relationship strain
  • Fear
  • Financial strain
  • Grief & Loss
  • Life Transitions
  • Loneliness
  • Low self-esteem
  • Mood Swings
  • Relationship strain
  • Separation
  • Self-Esteem & Confidence
  • Sleep Issues
  • Social anxiety
  • Stress
  • Trauma
  • Uncertainty
  • Work stress & burnout

The Process

I hope to facilitate change by walking alongside those who come to see me, by ‘meeting disquiet with quiet’.

I acknowledge the inherent unbrokenness which we essentially are, ‘the quiet’. And I invite the ‘disquiet’, the unacknowledged parts, the disowned feelings, the avoidance strategies, the pain and hurt, to be known and to be allowed. And in this recognition, is the healing.

In our wholeness, we are more authentically ourselves, and we live our lives more fully and with less restraint.

Contracted Sessions: A counselling appointment lasts up to 50 minutes. A number of sessions will be agreed at the outset, to be reviewed thereafter. Further sessions may or may not be agreed, as determined jointly with each client.

Confidentiality & Consent: Counselling is a confidential process. As a registered professional I discuss my work in supervision on a regular basis. As supervision is also a confidential relationship, client privacy is protected.

Registered with ACC to provide sensitive claims counselling.
This includes instigating the process with ACC, no referrals required.
