COUNSELLING

I’m a University trained Clinical Counsellor and have been in private practice for over 2 decades. I work collaboratively with you in a relational way, helping you to connect the dots to your past if necessary, and how this can often impact your present life.

I work with all ages, regardless of which stage in life you’re at – it’s never too late to choose the fullest, most satisfying life! I use the latest science and research to help you create a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.

My approach is unique in that as an older therapist having peeled off many layers and practised many healing paths for 4 decades, I have the lived experience, clinical therapeutic tools and empathy in how to navigate life’s challenges with ease and creativity.

I am trauma-informed, and have an ability to be a safe and strong container for you to say the unspoken.  When navigating change or embracing uncertainty, having a supportive companion can help you speed up the time it takes to figure out your new reality.

HOW I CAN HELP

“I am extremely grateful for your work with me. It opened me not only to what I needed to face but to the strength needed to overcome it. I loved the way you guided me so gently but with such quiet clarity gained only from having the deep expertise to support people in their healing. I felt very safe. It opened me without feeling traumatised. And in the days since I have much more compassion and love for myself. Thank you Mariana for your beautiful wise and healing ways.”

Mothers & Daughters

I work with women of all ages and stages, listening deeply to your challenges.

I’ll support you either to find your voice or unravel or release old trauma, so you can choose a new story for the next chapter of your life, fully alive in your body, with radiance and wellbeing.

I specialise in Mother ~ Daughter healing that provides mothers or daughters to explore their concerns about this relationship. As our first relationship in life is with Mother, this can leave many women with lifelong challenges to varying degrees.

As a daughter, mother of daughters, and grandmother, I’m experienced and equipped to support women to navigate this relationship with self-compassion and forgiveness.
