Holistic Counselling

Breaththrough  ~  Healing   ~   Wholeness

 

What is Holistic Counselling?

 

Holistic Counselling is a form of counselling that works with you as a whole person, not just the symptoms. It is client-centred, meaning I will look deeper into an individual's overall physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing, including life experiences, to uncover underlying causes. 

 

I believe you have the answers to what needs to come forth. So, my role is to be here with you and to facilitate that process by exploring emotional, mental, physical, spiritual, social, cultural and environmental experiences to discover and unleash this inner wisdom.​

​

I incorporate an integrative approach to counselling, journeying alongside you to explore and discover aspects of your multidimensional self and human experience. I do not see clients as damaged or needing to be 'rescued'.  Instead, the focus is on uncovering, acknowledging, healing and aligning with your true self - to live a balanced and meaningful life.

​

What does it treat?

Holistic Counselling is effective in treating and supporting many life challenges.

This is done in a safe and supportive environment.

 

Benefits of Holistic Counselling

🌿 Whole person approach - considers all aspects of a person’s life, including

emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. This helps create a

balanced and integrated approach to healing and growth.

​

🌿 Emotional healing - providing a safe space to explore and heal emotional

wounds, helping individuals to process past traumas and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

 

🌿 Enhanced self-awareness - through self-exploration and reflection, clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their patterns, and behaviours, leading to greater self-awareness and personal growth.

​

🌿 Empowerment - Holistic counselling empowers clients by encouraging them to take an active role in their healing process, fostering self-reliance and confidence.

​
