My interest and education grew out of soft skills – who we are and how we relate, and operate, in the world. It is still the source of my passion for working with people; connecting with others to help them from where they are, to where they want to be.

I know how it is to be stuck; debilitating at times, and a range of emotions. I’m confident you have the answers and I really enjoy working with people to reflect and help unpack them.  Counselling clients own and drive their own change however sometimes people prefer a more directive/coaching approach and I am happy to switch to this mode with you.  My own value and purpose comes from assisting others and I look forward to hearing from you.

You will also find my passion for people drives an interest in blogging about and discussing soft skills, and life in general; happiness, communication, conflict, teamwork, personality types, etc. I really like to hear from people on anything I post!
