In her years of being a therapist, she has developed the belief that psychological interventions and therapy should be tailored to the person’s uniqueness. In her approach, she aims to create a strong therapeutic relationship, provide knowledge and education, develop awareness, and encourage change, if that is what you are seeking.

This hart therapist believes therapy shouldn’t feel like a rigid corset or tight pants, but like something that can be moulded and shaped to suit you and where you are at, both mentally and physically, and together you will work on creating the perfect fit.

Change comes differently to different people and before it can happen, one has to gain new knowledge and awareness about themselves. Her approach is warm, genuine and empathic and based on learning scientifically sound and proven information about you, developing awareness of how this new knowledge applies and is affecting you, and then choosing if and what to change and how to do it.

This Hart therapist is a registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist. She has an unwavering passion to help people navigate through life’s challenges and move towards personal growth and happiness. She offers a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals and couples to explore the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that may affect life negatively.

This Hart therapist’s life experience and comprehensive training in psychology, counselling, and psychotherapy, provide her with the knowledge and skills to assist you to explore, identify and understand the patterns of your behaviour. She sees her role as helping you to modify unhelpful patterns and offer support as you navigate change in order to live a healthier, happier, and more productive life.

Using evidence-based approaches and interventions, she will individualise your therapy sessions in line with your goals and needs and reflecting your unique life experiences. Through mutual trust and collaboration, together you will find what works best for you, as she respects ‘you’ as the expert of your life.

With compassion and understanding, she brings genuine interest and curiosity into your therapy sessions, so you may feel heard, understood, and appreciated. Her goal is for you to leave with a better understanding of yourself and others so you may achieve psychological and emotional health and well-being and move forward with a sense of hope and empowerment.

One of her many favourite quotes is this one from Carl Rogers:
“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination”.

Rogers’ view was that the good life is not an outcome to be achieved but rather a process that we have to be constantly engaged with to be continually moving towards.
