Practice
I practice on Mondays in Kerikeri at my home address.
And i have other practice work though a trust organisation tuesday - friday.
Whats been the most important things to me have been - some negative experiences in here too because i believe adversity can grow you:-
- meeting my birth family.
- Births of and rearing of my own children
- Going through a divorce
- Being a solo parent has been an invaluable experience
- My marriage to my husband now
- Training and study for a x 2 diplomas
- Work in a leadership role in an area of work with volunteers
- Studying for a degree
- Training and working as an inidividuals, couples and trauma therapist.
- Tavel overseas
A deep compassion and empathy for others.
There was an altruistic component to training. I felt led to do this.
Also an inquisitivness about why people behave certain
ways.
When i trained it became very improtant to me to train at a well-ruputed
training organisation which
would train me well so i could be a 'good' counsellor to help others.

Life
I think theres lots of nice things, a call from my daughter, a cat on my lap to pat,
a freshly mowed lawn, a beautiful rural view on the way home from work.
At work being told by a new client "I dont trust people but i trust you.'.
Defintiely still working in the field as a counsellor, nothing comes close. I love my work.
I love the movies - thats where you will defiinitely find me, at the movies with a friend,. I love art, water colour painting, photography. Im active getting to the gym or running the roads or biking. They all give m joy, plus the simple act of purposefully going to a beach so you can body surf. I love it all.
And I'm an adventurer. when i get the chance. road trips and travel overseas are a passion.
My grandkids.
Yes husband of 26 years and two adult children and three grandchildren.
Yes ive had personal counselling when I trained, as a counsellor and once before that. I really enjoyed the process, The chance to talk about me and my life and all the stored up feelings i had
that went along with me.
Ive been a teacher in the past, and ive been an administrator. Neither come close to the job i love now.

Inspiration
A lot fo the time my clients inspire me with their courage, their wisdom and their resilliance again major adversities.
Love reading.
I havent one favourite film as i love so many of them!
To look on the bright side. dont dwell down there on the negative.
