Frequently Asked Questions
A: Moving from Misery to Meaning, counselling invites you to delve deeper into creating and finding personal meaning in your own life. Sessions are process-orientated and geared toward what you want to get out of it. I use a Feedback-Informed Treatment approach (FIT) which allows greater value and effectiveness in each and every session. Acceptance & Commitment Training (ACT) as well as Expressive Art can be woven through the session to gain effectiveness.

Life is not a problem to be solved but rather an experiment to be lived. Let’s live it with joy and as comfortably, peacefully and abundantly as we can.
