As a Christian counsellor who focuses on the client and what they need for their healing process and to grow towards the best version of themselves, I bring diverse experience and commitment to the process.
Living in Australia, since 2005 with my husband and close to my adult daughters and grandchildren. Previously from South Africa where we experienced many challenges which lead to moving to Australia.
My private counselling practice is mainly online. I enjoy working with the diversity that each client brings, working to change thought patterns, behaviours and feelings that can make life challenging. I practice in an integrated way to find a personalised pathway for each client.Â
I regularly work with: Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Loss, Trauma, Healthy Boundaries, Relationships, Self-Esteem, Life Coaching.
Currently, practicing as pastoral counsellor within Mercy Health Residential Aged Care where I work with residents, their families and staff to make the most of their time in this difficult environment where grief is a constant companion. Leading up to this position, I was a business owner both in South Africa and Australia, always in the service industry as health practitioner, life coach and personal trainer.
Harp therapy can be part of the session if the client needs it. As therapeutic harp practitioner, I do group work and one-on-one harp therapy for brain stimulation, singing and breath work and to enhance social connection. I also use harp therapy in palliative care for both the family and the person who is on end-of-life pathway.
