Description
I am a culturally sensitive counsellor, and am very interested in supporting clients to get to the root of issues. When we are able to listen deeply to ourselves, insights come from within. By observing ourselves, we become more aware, and gain more clarity. My own experience as a client has brought me some amazing teachings about how to hold space and trust, in the unpacking and unfolding process. In my personal life, I embrace resources such as music, dance, Tai Chi, mindfulness practices, and Vipassana meditation.
