Authenticity

Hobart Holistic Counselling

What does it mean to live an authentic life. An authentic life is one where our needs are met, we feel fulfilled, we experience self-actualization and we flourish.

Work with me to achieve your full potential by developing your innate ability to accomplish considered, creative, playful & growth enhancing solutions to whatever you find challenging.

At Life Matters you’ll be supported to find solutions & provided “transferrable” skills (for use beyond therapy) to ensure you can continue to move confidently forward in your life.

Curiosity

Hobart Holistic Counselling

As a Holistic Counsellor, I’m ever curious & optimistic about your human potentiality and place in the world. The desire to know & grow is an innate human pursuit you have undertaken since birth.

My Counselling Experience has been obtained working in private practice & corporate settings since completing an Undergraduate Degree and Specialist Vocational Training.

I undertake relevant Professional Development (PD) activities every year to ensure that you’re provided a high quality & up-to-date service. Quite simply because I believe your life matters.
