I’m here to support you on your journey toward mental and emotional well-being. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can freely share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. With a caring and understanding approach, I aim to build a trusting relationship where you feel truly supported.
Having worked with people from all walks of life, I understand that everyone faces unique challenges. That’s why I take a holistic approach, recognising how your mind, body, and surroundings all play a part in your well-being. My focus is on seeing you as a whole person, with kindness and empathy. I want to make sure you always feel heard, understood, and valued in an environment that feels safe and accepting.
I use tools such as narrative therapy to help you rewrite your story with compassion. I also incorporate techniques like Life Stress Reduction, Traumatic Incident Reduction, and Cognitive Behavioural strategies to help you navigate life’s ups and downs. Mindfulness is also key in my approach, helping you stay centred and present in the moment.
It would be my privilege to walk alongside you on this journey, offering warmth, care, and understanding at every step.

The Specialist Wellness Counsellor is competent to lend comprehensive and specialized counselling support towards the improvement of the quality of life by assisting clients in resolving conflicts, improving relationships, and coping with life’s challenges. Specialist Wellness Counsellors are required to refer clients to medical and psychological professionals if they identify needs that require specialized intervention such as mood, personality and anxiety disorders and health related problems that require medical attention. A Specialist Wellness Counsellor is an ASCHP member with an applicable postgraduate qualification on NQF level 8 and a minimum of 100 hours of practicum experience. (adapted from ASCHP, n.d.).
