Offering a safe, non-judgmental psychotherapy and counselling service in the Singleton shire, using skills and knowledge in Emotional Freedom Technique a.k.a (tapping) and nutrition to support you into becoming a healthier person emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically through the therapy process. Focusing on the here-and-now relationship can help us discover belief patterns, perceptions, and thoughts that impede personal growth. I'll help you explore your physical, spiritual, and emotional experience to help you boost clarity while creating coping skills that will work for you. I feel that problems we have in our lives are important messages from 'a deeper part of the self that is trying to be heard, perhaps parts that have been ignored, shunned and abandoned. In my work I help to make contact with these sometimes problematic and often hurt parts by building a relationship in which there is safety, trust, and freedom. My experience has been that this brings surprising insights, shifts and healing. As our difficult places become known and slowly accepted they become integrated and we become more whole, actualised, and present as people. As a therapist, I partner with my clients as we explore present difficulties or past traumas. Through a supportive therapeutic process, my clients discover and build upon their own inner strengths and resources, which they learn to rely upon outside of therapy in their daily lives.
