A graduate (or perhaps continuing student) of the "University of Life" and mature age graduate of Diploma of Counselling.and specialise in The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP) which is now my main focus because it is the most effective therapy I have ever witnessed.I am known for my empathy and non-judgemental approach and for causing spontaneous laughter.I am person centred and favour solution focused therapy and utilise CBT and narrative therapies and where appropriate drum therapy.My clients always get homework in the expectation that they are motivated toward their own growth and healing and will proactively put in the effort to achieve their goals.I believe in a holistic approach and do not hesitate to refer clients for cooperative therapies or refer them onto specialist assistance. I wholeheartedly believe growth, change and healing are possible.
