Counselling Dubai

Counselling Dubai offers counselling for people from all walks of life, cultures, experiences, beliefs and ways of being, and for those needing to talk with someone who will listen without judgement and offer support.

My Experience

My skills constitute a life time's dedication to working compassionately with people from all walks of life, cultures, countries and abilities.

With over 30 years work experience as a counsellor and parenting educator, I have acquired many distinctive skills for providing specialized training and counselling services, including an empathetic and careful listening approach combined with deep intuitive and compassionate understanding.

My unique advantage in this area is the extensive experience of many years in the field of counselling for individuals, couples, marriage and grief counselling. This enables me to be plausible, credible and trusted, while displaying the broad perspective which can only be gained through a great deal of experience.

The unpredictability of our changing times produces many complex issues which do require a competent, realistic, reliable and experienced resolution.

Personally, within the field of parenting, I have raised a family of four, now grown children. I have participated in similar programs to that which I offer as a means of honing my own parenting style and ability, while being exposed to numerous skills, techniques, methods, practice and systems.

I have worked with numerous families incorporating these experiences successfully to enable change, progress and emotional maturity for parents.

The greatest way to change our self is to allow a change in our self perception.

The greatest way to change our world is to change our perceptions about the world.

The greatest way for this change to come about is through a change in our self beliefs.

We cannot choose our external circumstances, but we can always choose how we respond to them ~ Epictetus

Counselling Dubai aims to bring some of the following:

• Personal Insight

An increased understanding of the origin and development of emotional difficulties which will lead to a greater capacity for control over thoughts, feelings and actions - Lightbulb moments.

A Definition of Counselling The term ‘counselling’ refers to a professional relationship between a trained counsellor and the client, usually person-to-person, although it may involve more than two people. Counselling is about working with individuals and with relationships to give the client/clients an opportunity to explore their thoughts, beliefs and feelings, to discover and understand their ways of seeing, and to clarify ways of living a more satisfying, resourceful and fulfilled life. Rather than being directive or giving advice, counselling aims to help the client arrive at their own decisions, choices and meanings.

• Self-awareness

Becoming more aware of blocked and supressed thoughts and feelings - developing a sense of self perception that is more authentic.

• Self-acceptance

Greater capacity for self acknowledgement and self compassion, development of a positive attitude and an internal locus of control.

• Realised purpose and potential

Clarity of connection with aims, goals, purpose and meaning with a deeper sense and acceptance of one's own abilities and achievements

• Problem solving tools and techniques

The ability to acquire skills and tools to enable solutions to specific problems. I believe in discovering the HOW.

• Relationships with others

The ability to form and maintain meaningful relationships - A deeper understanding of our projections onto others.
