What do you love most about your job?
I believe in the healing ability of the human spirit; that we can transcend our history through reshaping our thoughts, beliefs, feelings and bring compassion, creativity, joy and abundance to our inner world.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been on my own journey, for many years, healing and transforming traumas and patterns that use to hold me back in life. I am deeply inspired to be a companion with others on their journey of healing.
My approach is science based and heart-centered. I have been trained to utilise the following modalities to inform my work; Art Therapy, Psychodrama, Person Centered Counselling, Couple Therapy, Breathwork, Relational Coaching and EFT.
Why should our clients choose you?
Because I love what I do and cherish seeing the transformation of peoples life stories... and the freedom they can experience in their life.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.

Individual Therapy
At the center is your heart.
Learn how to come back to your body, your essence and connect to who you are.
Uncover how to process trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety or a significant life event - such as; a breakup, becoming a single mother, job loss, death.
This work requires self-love, curiosity, determination and inner-child work.
Life Coaching
Navigating your way in life can sometimes require a sounding board for clarity.
Whether you are struggling with life decisions, have a calling in your heart, a dream of launching into business or want to unpack your potential, life coaching can be a great mechanism to tap into.
Couples Therapy
The deepest longing we have is a loving and stable relationship.
Often what interferes with this is patterns and unresolved wounds from childhood. When a couple begins to heal their deep wounds, you can begin to heal your relationship.
Find a way to communicate with each other, resolve conflict and come back to love. Learn how to deal with repeating conflicts, feeling like love is gone, boredom, disconnection, parenting, finances, sexual intimacy.
Child & Youth Therapy
"Let your child be the torch of truth and they shall shine over the entirety of the human society brightening even the darkest corners"
Child Therapy helps children cope and navigate stresses like divorce, death, family or a school transition
Art Therapy
Rehabilitation and healing can come from the making of actual art.
Art enables expression of feelings that may be difficult to verbalise.
Through mutual interest and curiosity about your experiences, feelings, patterns of thought, decision-making behaviour, and relationships, we will gain an understanding of what you want for your life and your relationships. We will identify what may be interfering, and what might enable these impediments to shift.
