Hello, and welcome.
Before Counselling I have worked as a carer, support worker, and teaching assistant working with children and adults in diverse settings.
For me, training as a counsellor felt like a natural progression and skill development as I have always shown empathy, and compassion while supporting people to be as actively independent as possible.
I have learnt how difficult it can be navigating the healthcare system, applying for financial support and the process for diagnosis. I have experienced how transformative learning about mental wellbeing can be. It is a tragedy that knowledge about anxiety, stress and healthy boundaries is not part of our national curriculum.
I am passionate about improving the day to day lives of regular people. Through learning coping skills such as grounding techniques, mindfulness, scheduling, understanding our thinking habits, the way we feel about ourselves and our world can change beyond our expectations when we are in a dark place.
