WEST of MARS

We are all oceans, experiencing stillness, waves or even tsunamis but just below the surface we are teeming with experiences or stories. The practice of counselling enables us to dive into these experiences or stories with curiosity , enabling us to understand them .

​

Everyone's idea of a perfect day or a fulfilling life will be different which is why my approach is dependent on your objectives and needs.

 

Each of us has the skills within us to thrive but throughout our lives we will face challenges, trauma or other adverse life experiences that can obscure these in shadows or fill us with doubt or despair.

 

Therapy is the practice of gaining clarity of your experiences and discovering these tools within to move forward from these experiences feeling lighter and confident.

​

Life is full of experiences that can surprise, frighten, challenge and fatigue us. And we don’t have to face these on our own. Our struggles can present themselves in a variety of ways:

​

• Early childhood trauma and abuse

• Relationships or marital conflicts

• Friends or co-workers

• Failures or setbacks

• World events

• Life transitions

• Abuse (physical, verbal, emotional or sexual)

• Betrayal

• Lack of motivation or energy

• Accidents or injury

• Job loss

• Death of a loved one

• Terminal illness

• Divorce

• Existential dread

• Grief

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Anger and stress

• PTSD or CPTSD

​​

Whether you feeling stuck,  overwhelmed, angry, anxious, depressed, or hopeless there is a way through the darkness. A change in perspective or understanding the root cause of these feelings can unlock doors and let the light in.
