✨ Why I Became a Counsellor & Social Worker ✨
At the heart of my work is one simple truth: every person carries resilience and strength within them 🌿. My journey into counselling and social work grew from a deep desire to walk alongside people through life’s challenges — not to “fix” them, but to empower them to discover their own healing and growth.
💡 My approach is holistic and strengths-based, recognizing that each individual’s story is unique.
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, which is why I draw on a wide range of evidence-based practices:
- 🌊 EMDR for trauma processing
- 🧠 CBT & DBT for reshaping thoughts and building emotional regulation
- 🌿 Somatic Therapy to reconnect mind and body
- 💫 IFS (Internal Family Systems) to work with our different parts with compassion
- 🎶 Polyvagal Theory to restore safety and balance in the nervous system
…and so much more, depending on what you need in your journey.
🌟 My passion is helping clients feel seen, supported, and capable of creating the life they want. Counselling is not about focusing on what’s “wrong” — it’s about highlighting your strengths, your story, and your capacity to heal.
If you’re curious about working together or want to learn more about holistic counselling, you’re in the right place 💚.
