Philosophy & Vision
In our world of ‘now’, we are faced with unprecedented external change and uncertainties, the echoes of which reverberate into every aspect of our being-in-the-world; and into our unique, individual lives. To help ourselves, one another, and the planet, we are called to attend to our inner world, our own sufferings and turmoil, and develop a degree of calm.
From this place of awareness, we can then draw on the internal resources of strength and wisdom that we inherently possess.
When I sit across from a new client, face-to-face, I see a unique individual looking back at me. I approach the unfolding therapeutic relationship and the work to be done with a 'beginners mind'; open, respectful, non-judgemental and compassionate.
Background
I have substantial experience in both private practice as a therapist (brief and longer term) and crisis counselling.
Services
I work with individual clients and couples, 18 years of age and over. Flexible appointment arrangements exist for Face-to-Face, online (Zoom) or telephone sessions.
Quality Provision
As a Registered Clinical Counsellor with both PACFA (Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia) and the ACA (Australian Counselling Association) I am required to fulfill ongoing professional development and peer supervision requirements.
