online counselling, mentoring and workplace consultancy

Counselling can be fun

helping people get mentally fit since 2004

Welcome

let's do counselling differently

Online Counselling should be fun and help us deal with the daily surprises of life

Counselling is not just about restoring mental health; it should also provide you with the tools to cope with whatever life throws at you in the future—building your mental fitness.

Gone are the days when we just looked at the past and helped you resolve a trauma; now, we should look to the future, building on our strengths and developing the ones we don’t.

Fun is a catalyst for change

Fun is not just about socialising; it’s a potent catalyst for emotional and intellectual growth, with benefits for your personal life and career development.

By blending the best practices of counselling, online counselling, and mentoring, we work together to help you understand what is happening and, importantly, find a solution that fits your situation and works for you.

building mental fitness

Some people need intensive therapy to recover from past traumas. A doctor often diagnoses these traumas, which can include conditions like depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorders.

In these cases, a more traditional counselling approach may be more beneficial.

For most of my clients, our focus is on improving their mental well-being. They do not have significant mental health problems, regardless of what they are told, but instead, they have issues with their mental fitness.

A ‘toolkit’ approach may be more appropriate in these cases to help build skills and confidence. This includes enhancing communication skills, practising mindfulness, and developing a mindset beyond resilience when facing challenges.

Sorry, there are no testimonials here. I think they are unethical and inherently deceptive.

Confidentiality is at the heart of my work; any testimonial/review will break that confidentiality.
