I empower people to make productive changes in their life. I work within the unique physical, mental, and emotional contexts of an individual, but pay particular attention to working through mental and emotional blocks that keep people from living a life full of health, vitality, and happiness. The core of what I do is reconnecting clients with their body so that they learn how to listen to their body and the wisdom it has to offer. We may not always like what we find there, but getting into our body transforms the way we relate to our mind, body, and the world.

有的时候，事情就那么猝不及防的发生了；有的时候，事情已经发生了很久。你也许想找个人聊聊，理理思路；也许，你已经笃定闭口不谈，或者不知道该从何谈起。不管你身处何地，决定如何，我都希望你了解到一点，孤军奋战是一种勇敢的选择，寻找帮助和整合资源是一种智慧的眼光。Sometimes things just happen ; other times, they've been happening for a long time. You may want to talk to someone to sort things out; perhaps, you've decided to close your mouth or don't know where to start. Wherever you are and whatever you decide, I hope you have realised one thing: standing alone is a brave choice; searching for help and integrating resources is a wise decision.

I offer both short-term counselling focusing on specific issues as well as longer-term psychotherapy. If you are frustrated with repeating old patterns of behaving and feeling and are searching for increased wellbeing, self-acceptance and resilience, psychotherapy can make a big difference to your life. Sharing your difficulties with a caring and effective listener can help you live more adventurously and feel more at ease in your own skin. I prefer to work collaboratively towards useful and achievable goals that you choose.
