Tango and I love starting our day with a long walk (add "rolling in the wet grass or smelly mud" for Tango). Our morning walk is the one thing I never compromise, rain or shine, as we both love this special and quiet time together and we need it for our wellbeing. What do you do to support your wellbeing?

What to expect in counselling with me and Tango?

I'll be your therapist. We'll work together on what matters to you, drawing from your wisdom, lived experiences and hopes, our therapeutic relationship and my professional skills.

What does Tango do in therapy? Tango brings himself, his playful, loving, caring self. He welcomes you, gives you hugs if you want them, asks you to play games, and offers comfort when needed. He also loves to sleep next to you, under you or in a quiet corner of the room. He also wants to follow you when you leave and can't wait until your next visit!
