Coaching & Counselling

- Giftedness
- Self-identity, self-worth and self-actualisation
- Planning, time management and other executive functioning skills
- Motivation and goal setting

- Communication and relationships
- Work/life balance
- Depression and mood swings
- Stress and anxiety
- Grief and loss
- Advocacy – empowering our clients to speak up and access the support they need.
