Welcome to my website. I invite you to take a look and see if my services are right for you. You may have challenges in your life such as the following:

• Are you facing a major change or transition in your life?
• Are you longing to find a lasting relationship, or to improve the one you have already?
• Do you want to achieve a dream or goal, but feel stuck or unsure of how to get there?
• Are you searching for fulfillment and a sense of purpose in your life?
• Are you exhausted from trying to do it all on your own?
• Are you feeling depressed and anxious, burdened by worries?
• Are you grieving the loss of a loved one or a relationship?
• Do you struggle with low self-esteem?
• Do you want to break out of old, negative patterns in relationships with family or friends?
• Are you facing a major change or transition in your life?

If you said yes to any of these questions, counselling can be a valuable resource to you.

Life is filled with changes and choices. Some changes we choose for ourselves, but others seem to be beyond our control. Either way, we can feel empowered by opportunities for change, or we can feel like helpless victims. Having a skilled therapist in times of transition can make a significant difference in the way you handle change.

Many people enter counselling therapy wanting change, not knowing how to make it happen. Times of transition offer exciting opportunities to learn valuable lessons and to make new choices in your life, work situation and relationships. I empower my clients to discover these opportunities and to use the new insights they gain from counselling to create the changes they need to in order to have satisfying, fulfilling lives. Clients have reported the following benefits from counselling:

• Feeling happier and healthier
• Feeling more confident
• Feeling more accepting of themselves and others
• Feeling calm and more hopeful
• Freedom from low self-esteem
• Freedom from depression and anxiety
• Freedom from disordered eating, drug and alcohol dependence
