      <image:title>About - What happens in counselling? I approach talk therapy as a place for genuine connection, reflection and meaning-making. Changes that can occur through counselling may include: insight, new ways of relating to ourselves, our emotions and our wider world. In counselling I acknowledge the varied effects of oppression, as well as the daily acts of resistance people and collectives use against such forces.</image:title>
