Overview

HOLISTIC COUNSELLOR AND PSYCHOTHERAPIST Michelle is a registered counsellor with adults and children and has experience in three diverse roles: community support, education, and therapeutic services. These form a strong foundation for her understanding of human behaviour and development in the care of individuals and their families. Married for 32 years and a mother of 4 herself, she recognizes that the journey of life gets hard at times. We all need the opportunity to be heard, understood, and receive compassionate support to navigate life’s challenges to enable us to move forward into genuine and lasting happiness. Having completed a Masters in Counselling and a Bachelor of Education, Michelle offers a service to help you make sense of inner confusion and past wounds, repair relationships, overcome grief and loss, develop personal and professional growth, build resilience, and create that work-life balance, while discovering tools and strategies that will move you closer to the life you have yearned for. Michelle has a desire to see individuals achieve restoration and Christian wholeness
