HEALTH IS WEALTH

WELLNESS
Our wellness is determined by the state of our “greater whole” i.e. our psychological, physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, and social wellbeing. Disease and disorders are part of the human condition and therefore a part of the greater whole. They are the result of depletions within this whole.

Working within the wellness paradigm, my focus is to help clients replace their states of 'dis ease’ with wellness strategies. Together, we explore and make changes within their lifestyle and embrace wellness - giving them an improved quality of life.

HOLISTIC COUNSELLING
Holistic Counselling is a highly personalised approach that helps you, help yourself when you feel the need for support or assistance. 

The difference between Counselling and Holistic Counselling: Rather than treating just the symptoms, a holistic counsellor looks deeper and tries to uncover underlying causes.

HOW I WORK
I believe that many live disconnected from themselves leading to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, listlessness, loss, frustration, addiction, powerlessness, and existential crisis.

I honor the diversity of each client and looking for depletions within their life be it psychological, physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, or social.

Coming alongside the client with compassion, non-judgment, and open-mindedness, I use an integrated approach and work with the client to facilitate personal connectivity. Through this connectivity, the depletions are replenished and self-healing is achieved through personal discovery and inner wisdom.

Together we look beyond the symptom and to the course of the problem.

WHAT IS EMI?
EMI (Eye Movement Integration Therapy) is a short term therapeutic intervention. Clients may experience a shift within two to three sessions. Seen as a neuro-therapeutic modality, combined with psychotherapy, it is a therapeutic tool to help the brain change traumatic memory networks and heal itself.

Research has shown that our eye movements are connected to our memory networks. Through guided eye movements, we can also access these memory networks and reprocess them. Through the eyes, we thus have a perfect entrance to the brain and old trauma memory networks.
