What you can expect from your first session:

Pursuing counselling should be everything but a traumatic experience. The aim is to make all individuals who decide to start with a counselling process as comfortable as possible whilst not avoiding the difficulties or important encounters that could assist them in their personal growth and/or healing process. Clients can look forward to a professional, however, tranquil and supportive environment. My focus is an integrative, holistic and personalised approach adapted to the needs of each individual client. No two fingerprints are alike, the detail of a fingerprint is influenced by many other factors besides genes. No client is alike “There is no one size that fits all”. I endure to empower a client by utilising the clients’ strength, willingness, and motivation to recover. I am dedicated to working in a space with my client where I relate to them as a person, not imposing a clinical professional relationship on them. My joy comes from witnessing the empowerment that transpires when clients, no matter the age, recognise their inner resources and as a result flourish. I consider it an honour and privilege to be part of the process of a client coming closer to the accomplishment of their potential.
