For life to be full and meaningful we have to identify the unique mix of elements that are congruent with our context/reality, our relationships, our true self and our purpose. I work with clients on issues of life purpose / meaning, loss and grief and relationships. I am here to walk beside you, to help you live a life of your own design so you can say yes to life. I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) with the Association of Cooperative Counselling Therapists (ACCT).

It is your task to define what makes life worth living, and to create your own identity. On your path, you are confronted with tasks, like work and intimacy, and challenges, like loss (divorce, death, unemployment etc). You have to walk your own path. I am here to support you for those times when you need someone to walk beside you.
