One-to-One Counselling
Putting the Focus on You
A space for you, about you. A safe, confidential space. A space without judgement.
Whatever is going on is impacting on you today!
You just need a helping hand to pull you out…
You May be Experiencing
Distress, anxiety or depression.
Living through life crises, a time of transition and change.
Coming to terms with loss and grief.
Remembering the trauma of sexual, physical or emotional abuse.
Going through separation and divorce or relationship and family issues.
It's Time to Talk About You
You deserve so much more than what you are going through.
You are worth so much more than the negative messages you hear all the time. It’s draining when all you want to feel is excited, energised and alive!
To have a different outcome.
You need to create some space. A space where you can explore all you are experiencing. You need someone to talk to.
The Therapeutic Space
You are giving yourself the time to explore what is going on and find your path.
Using the time in your own way and at your own pace to examine those areas causing you concern.
My role is assisting you in finding your own answers and solutions that are unique to you and your experience, to realise your own potentiality.
