About me and my therapy practice

I am passionate about helping others which comes from a motivation of wanting to learn and share in mutually respectful relationships. I use active listening to seek a deep understanding of my client’s perspective, feelings and emotions. This helps me to accompany you and work with you to identify and manage the changes you want to make in your life. In time and with the openness gained by our client/counsellor relationship you can reveal new perspectives, self-awareness and self-healing.

Practice description

I offer clients a calm atmosphere in which they can begin to understand, cope with and heal from incidents such as trauma, grief, mourning, PTSD, anxiety and depression. The therapeutic process is a way to bring to the forefront one’s inner strength and ability rebuild self.

Howlite is a crystal that is said to calm communication, facilitate awareness and encourages emotional expression; teaching patience while helping to ease rage, pain and stress. I decided to name my practice Howlite Therapy to emulate the aims and approach of my therapeutic practice.

My first session

I offer a free 30 minute consultation where I establish your contact details, presenting issues and availability. If you decide to move forward and go ahead with counselling sessions we can book your first session. Your first session will be a chance for us to discuss the counselling agreement, boundaries, your presenting issues in more detail and begin to shape outcomes you may have in mind.
