I am a Christian counsellor based on the Hibiscus coast of Auckland, NZ. I specialise in working with teenagers, young adults, mothers and parents.
As a counsellor I highly value your worth as a human being. In a safe counselling environment, where you feel accepted and validated, we can talk about the things that are causing you stress and overwhelm. You will be able to explore your thoughts, emotions and behaviours and we we will work together to establish goals that align with your values. We will also explore strategies and tools that may support you to reach these goals, practicing and troubleshooting together.
I currently hold a Bachelor of Education (Hons) in Educational Psychology (2015) from the University of Pretoria and have completed various trainings since then as continued learning and development.
