Counsellor & Family Therapist
Chakra-Puncture Practitioner

I believe Counselling should be conducted in a holistic way,  it is not only about supporting people to cope, it is about teaching individuals to grow physically, spiritually, emotionally and mentally. 
Holistic counselling is a supportive therapy that enables you to achieve more understanding of yourself, and bring more joy, love and growth to your life and your relationships.
Counselling assists you to identify your values, what's important in your life, how to move forward, how to achieve a wellness for your body and how to resolve issues that are affecting your emotional, mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing.
I started my journey in the health and helping industry by working as a massage therapist, I then furthered my education and followed my passion into counselling,  chakra-puncture, and energetic healing.  My approach,  Is a holistic ideology and healing practice that encompasses the body as a whole,  incorporating the mind,  physical body, spiritual self and emotional presence.
I believe working on individuals or families as a whole, is the only way to support complete health and lasting change, my treatments and treatment philosophy is all about inspiring people to heal and grow themselves.  I provide emotional, physical and mental support for my clients,  facilitating them to explore themselves, and inspire their own discovery of self, health and wellbeing.
With this in mind I have experienced and witnessed, true growth in my clients, and have seen lasting health changes, emotional stability, self empowerment and positive personal change and growth.  I work an overarching capacity, where the client is the true healer,  my role is to inspire, facilitate and guide clients to finding themselves, understanding their whole health and how to live full and meaningful lives.
