As a trained counsellor I have worked with adults and adolescents with many challenges including addiction, anxiety, depression, stress, anger issues and many other issues of human complexity. I have worked in government funded counselling services for over ten years including as a clinical leader in a 'rehab'.
Counselling involves dialogue among participants to foster understanding, new insight, hope, resolve plus gaining support for changing behaviours, relational patterns and/or emotional responses.
Finding your personal solutions and living a more meaningful life is possible.
My interest in holistic wellbeing also led me to studying naturopathy and I am excited to also utilise this approach to help both mental health and physical health issues including stress and exhaustion. Both counselling and naturopathy aim to support balance, strength and development of mind and body.
Providing the treatment approach that resonates with you is vital to enhancing your wellness.
