I have been training in Counselling and Psychotherapy, and working to emotionally support and counsel people since 1996. My Counselling and Psychotherapy work has been with adults and children of all ages, individually, in families, and in couple and group therapy. At the moment I work as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist only with adults, of all ages.

* Conflict and anger management
* Stress, depression and mood swings
* Fear
* Trauma. Including torture, abuse, difficult birth, pre and perinatal issues, difficult medical history, accidents and domestic violence
* Sexuality and issues with intimacy
* Pregnancy and motherhood/fatherhood
* Reclaiming masculinity/femininity
* Boundaries/saying No/personal goals
* Lack of self confidence/feeling inferior
* Feeling stuck or unfocused
