About me

I am able to offer an environment of compassion, warmth and hope conducive to growth, reflection and empowerment, that has your best interests at the heart of it. I bring with me 25 years experience in counselling. Also I have insight from 5 decades of life experience to draw upon as well as working in other fields and living in other cities. Furthermore I have an array of trainings.

My approach to couples therapy

Uncover your communication styles, how they work together and psychoeducation around good communication. Understand what unites you and what divides you, draw upon the resources that unite and work on those that divide and learn to give each other validation and understanding around those. Tools to work on relationship after therapy.

Our first couples session

During the first session, ascertain an understanding of what each persons' goals and expectations are for the session and the therapy. Decide on a common goal and focus for the first session and therapy as an entirety. Build a safe, non judgmental, impartial container for the work, where both parties feel heard, seen and included.
