One-On-One Counselling
I am available at:

for one-on-one counselling sessions.
Telephone Counselling
Telephone counselling is just as successful as face-to-face treatment at combating depression, anxiety, emotional overeating and addiction disorders.
An article published in the Australian & New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry, found that internet and telephone counselling treatment required less than two hours of clinician contact time compared to an average 12 to 15 hours of face-to-face treatment.
Medications work but they are only part of the treatment. Cognitive therapy, stress management and being able to talk to someone at short notice, is imperative in the treatment of emotional and mental disorders.
Visiting a counsellor, psychologist or doctor can be difficult when you consider the cost and time spent travelling or taking time off work. Sitting in a Waiting Room for a short consultation is not going to set you up for success.
Telephone counselling can be done at home and is much cheaper.
A medical study monitored 45 patients with mild to moderate depression who used a telephone and/or internet-based treatment similar to programs a patient would receive.
The results show that after using the telephone and/or internet treatment, more than a third of patients no longer met the diagnosis criteria for depression - a result similar to traditional clinical treatments.
People suffering from depression often lack effort and energy and telephone counselling cuts through the barrier of making that decision to make an appointment, then having to wait sometimes days, or even weeks, to get an appointment.
Telephone counselling is convenient and successful
