Counselling

Alice’s counselling approach is person centred and she believes that every person’s story has been uniquely crafted by the challenges they have faced, and overcome, in their life. She walks with her client on their journey, safely exploring their past experiences and helping them to resolve their concerns in a way that works for them. She utilises practices that re-connect the mind (thoughts) with the body (feelings), focuses on her client’s strengths and capabilities, and empowers them to manage their current challenges and bravely step into creating their ideal life.
