How I work
How MI Counselling and Healing Services Work
Over the years, I have learned so much not only from my numerous studies and learned colleagues but also from my clients.
Here are some of what I have learned:
- Throughout our entire lifespan, we can evolve our knowing and our strength within ourselves.
- Our bodies hold our stress, our memories and must be included in processing our experiences.
- Trauma may be part of your history and it does not have to be your future.
I can offer empathic understanding with an open gentleness.
While being with you, I endeavour to assist you to see your strengths.
Relationships are important to being human and for doing the repair to heal.
I want to learn how YOU understand what is happening for you.
Face to face counselling at the ‘Dunn Lewis Centre’, Ulladulla’ on Thursdays and could be flexible for Friday & Saturday.
Online counselling on Thursday, Friday and Saturdays.
Family Group Conferences
I will endeavour to support your ongoing growth as you enlighten me to the growth you have already achieved.
My offering to you is my ever-deepening understanding of how to work through our trauma’s. Lifelong learning is vital and I am particularly interested in expanding my knowledge of healing developmental trauma incorporating attachment theory, body awareness and person-centered theories.
‘Self-regulation depends on having a friendly relationship with your body. Without it you have to rely on external regulation – from medication, drugs like alcohol, constant reassurance or compulsive compliance with the wishes of others’.
