I bring a wealth of experience to my counselling, having worked with families, couples and individuals for more than twenty years. I hold a Diploma in Social Work and in Counselling and have certificates in Supervision and Family Ministry. I am particularly interested in grief and loss and other life changing events. I am also available to counsel for decision making in an unexpected pregnancy and can offer post abortion counselling.
I take an integrated approach in my work, including CBT, person-centred and narrative therapy. I consider the Christian values of compassion and openness an important characteristic to my life and try to reflect these within my practice.
I adhere to the NZCCA Code of ethics and have regular supervision.
