My Story
I am fascinated by human development and the influences that shape behaviour. This passion led me to study neuropsychology, a branch of psychology that analyzes how a person's thoughts and behaviour connect to the brain and the rest of the nervous system. My experience spans 30 years and has given me a unique insight into how biological, environmental, and family systems can be a factor on a person's self-worth and mental health.
Counselling is an essential tool that we can use to fortify our minds, just as we would use healthy food to nourish our bodies. Working with a therapist is more than discovering cognitive health. It helps us find our purpose and develops a sense of belonging.
