The word psychology comes from the Greek "psykhe" (psyche), meaning "soul", "spirit", "mind", "life", and "breath", combined with the Greek word "logos", more often thought of today in the form of "-ology," meaning "the study of." The current discipline and practice of psychology is understood as the study of our inner mental life, and in it's original meaning, is literally the study of our soul - our deepest self or essence.

Together we will discuss the issues that are of concern to you and come up with new and more empowering ways of thinking and being, transforming difficult experiences into opportunities for learning and growth. You will benefit from counselling by attaining direction, clarity, and healing of emotional issues. You will learn new skills that will help you face life's challenges with confidence and wisdom.
I maintain an open-minded and accepting attitude towards you as a person and your situation. As we develop a trusting relationship, the more you can open up and share your deepest thoughts and feelings, the more helpful I can be. This experience of unconditional respect and the freedom to explore your inner thought processes without judgment, while I offer reflections and perspectives, will allow your inner wisdom to come forward, and ultimately healing and transformation will occur.
While some people come for advice and prefer a problem-solving approach, other people come to feel heard and to process their emotions and life experiences. Together, we can decide which approach is right for you, depending on what you would like to achieve in counselling - my approach is adjusted to suit your needs and preferences. I look forward to working with you!
