My Approach

My holistic approach is based on a person-centered approach, meaning;

My role is to develop a honest, genuine relationship with you, where you feel understood, accepted and valued.  Allowing us to explore your world to gain understanding and process what comes up for you.

 

I understand seeking help from a professional is not easy.  However, I hope during our time together you will experience:

  • better insight into your situation and feelings;
  • develop a greater understanding of your life, relationships, situation, and future
  • move towards resolving your concerns; and
  • create a life plan that supports the realisation of your potential, happiness, and success.

What to Expect During a Sesion

Uncertain if counselling will work for me?

Our first session together is an initial consultation.  This will allow you to get a 'feel for me as your counsellor'.  I will ask you questions such as what brings you to counselling?  I will also ask deeper questions about your background and occupation.  This information helps me to determine which type of therapy would be most beneficial for you.

Together we will discuss your specific needs, and goals for treatment.  I will also explain more extensively how I work and you will have the chance to ask questions to decide whether I am the right Counsellor for you.  At the end of your initial consultation you will leave the room with a clear idea of what you can expect from our work together.
