How many years counselling experience do you have?

20 years +

What are three strengths you have as a Psychologist/Counsellor?
  1. I’m approachable and walk beside my clients in their journey
  2. I have a lot of knowledge in attachment-based theory which helps support clients in many issues that they face
  3. I use somatic therapies when individuals aren’t able to articulate their concerns, which is very affective
What is the most satisfying and fulfilling part of the work you do?

The ability to build resilience and give hope to people who are struggling with life’s ups and downs.

What’s an example of a couple you have helped the most?

A couple who had decided that they want to get a divorce due to unresolved issues within the relationships and family dynamics. After 6 months of intensive therapy, they started to work with each other instead of against each other. Twelve months later, they renewed their vows in front of friends and family.
