​
Passionate
With over fifteen years of experience, working with a diverse community in various supportive roles, my passion to help people continue to grow. The pool of knowledge and empathy embedded in my services goes beyond the formal qualifications I have acquired.
​
Empathetic
I am blessed to have overcome childhood trauma and found healing from grief due to multiple losses in life as an adult. As a mother of 5 in a blended family, building and maintaining relationships has been a challenging but vital part of my life. I intergrade my experience, formal training my passion to help people who are going through the journey I have been on.
I worked closely with diverse groups of people as a mentor and a coordinator and facilitator of a support group for over 10 years and have acquired a deeper understanding of how cultural barriers and stigma attached to mental health can prevent people from seeking help.
Committed
I take a comprehensive approach to work collaboratively with my clients to determine the root cause of the problem, in order to provide lasting change to existing problems and prevent them from reoccurring. My commitment is to see my clients treated with the highest degree of respect for genuine care.
I strive to see a happier community by supporting and inspiring people to grow emotionally, physically and spiritually. It is my aim to provide a heart centred service where my clients are treated with respect and dignity. Read more
