Welcome and thank you for visiting my page
My name is Joanna, I am a professional Counsellor Accredited with the BACP and a professional Mindset, Personal Life & Workplace Coach. I am here to assist you in working through your mental and emotional issues and facilitate you in the process of change.
I set up my counselling and coaching practice after some personal and professional life events that changed my priorities. Having worked in the area of corporate business and finance for many years, in my pursuit of happiness and a more fulfilling life many changes had to be made. This involved changes in relationships, lifestyle, mindset and career.
Having gone through many life changes I use the knowledge, insight, wisdom and experience gained to help people overcome their issues and facilitate individuals through the process of personal life and career changes.
