I am a clinical member of Queensland Counsellors' Association and registered with PACFA. This means that I am qualified and experienced. I practise ethically, keep up to date with professional development and undergo regular professional supervision.
Much of my lifetime has been spent working with people and experiencing change and challenges. I have worked professionally as an individual and family counsellor, family support worker, and an educator.
The changes and challenges that I have experienced throughout my life have presented me with opportunities to learn about myself and grow spiritiually. During these times it has been invaluable to have a 'third party' other than my friends whom I didn't want to burden. I needed someone to draw out my strengths, reflect my abilities, gifts and talents so that I could make my decisions from a position of empowerment. I understand the importance of being empowered; to be able to reach through the strong emotions; the fears that otherwise hold me back, and be empowered to achieve what I want to achieve.
Connecting with the Earth and Nature has been a great source for peace and joy for me even in the most challenging of times and so my journey has become a Shamanic journey. I practise energy healing within a Shamanic framework and this lends more meaning and depth to my work.
