When you decide to see a therapist, or seek counselling, you're making a decision to see someone who has a responsibility to maintain your confidentiality and your privacy.
You don’t need to pay someone to give you advice. Advice is free. I can make recommendations, but professional counsellors need to do far more than that.

Here you are making a change, whether you like it or not, and you're going to navigate what that change looks like.

I am here to provide a non-judgmental space for that as well as support you, guide you, and at times even direct you through that process.
