Hypnotherapist

Are you currently struggling with something personal? Are you unhappy with certain aspects of your life? Do you live with Anxiety or Depression? Do you simply need someone to talk to? Here at Lake Macquarie Counselling & Psychotherapy, I aim to assist clients to discover the root cause of these issues and more. Within an environment of safety, understanding and support, clients are able to take time out from the pace of everyday life and explore issues that are affecting them personally. Clients can use this time to find reasons for why they are the way they are, and why they may react to certain situations in the way that they do. With time to slow down, and with the use of mindfulness techniques, these issues can be explored on a deeper mind/body level helping understanding and new information to be gained. Sometimes, people can see therapy as intimidating. They may feel unsure or uncomfortable about taking that first step towards facing their fears and reaching for personal growth. It is my hope to provide a down-to-Earth, relaxed and safe space for people to feel comfortable in. I want to help my clients not just function in life, but thrive.

Relational Coaching was established in 2005 and is built on a lifetime of helping people get on in life! Relationships make life rich and fulfilling. Working on our relationships is an investment in ourselves and those around us.

I personally look after clients from first telephone contact to the end of counselling. I still love my profession after 20 years. I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker.
