About the Counsellor

My approach

I believe everyone possesses an inner strength, even when life's challenges might make it hard to be recognised. Therefore, my therapeutic approach is primarily person-centered, focusing on uncovering each individual's inner resources and tailoring therapeutic methods and techniques to their unique circumstances and needs. This includes, but is not limited to, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).

I am committed to creating a space of respect and inclusivity, supporting and assisting visitors in finding purpose and balance in their lives. Regardless of your language, culture, or background, you are welcome to Chia Mindspace, let me accompany you as you explore your inner world and discover your inner strength.

The Energy of Chia Seeds

A small chia seed contains a wealth of nutrients and energy. That's where the name Chia Mindspace comes from. I believe everyone has inner strength. However, in the journey of life, we will encounter different challenges which may impact on our ability to see and observe our inner self and strength.

Chia Mindspace provides a space for learning, sharing , through laughter or tears. Let my listening and companionship help you restart the life you desire.
