Overview
I provide a safe none critical space for you to communicate your thoughts and feelings.
I provide guidance and strategies to help you through your concerns.
I appreciate that seeking help can be a challenge and want to make this step in your life as clear, simple and easy as possible.
Just as you would go to the doctor for a physical problem for specialist support, counselling and psychotherapy can help you for emotion and mental struggles.

We celebrate each individual’s unique qualities and I learn new things about the diversity of human life everyday.
