Hi. I'm Jeff... great to meet you! I am here to support you on your transformation journey. I provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore what is going on, to feel heard and understood, as you become the person you really want to be.
My therapy style is centred around you. I am a great listener and I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. You would expect that of a counsellor wouldn’t you?
My approach combines client centred therapy - where you lead the way as expert in your life - with some solution focused CBT and NLP all of which is ‘humanistic’… all of which means I have a strong belief in your inner resources to change for the better. I also offer hypnotherapy.

Jeff is mainly doing childhood work with me, which is extremely valuable to me. He is also mixing in a bit of grief consulting, and though it is not the focus, his grief consulting helped me more than many other conversations about death and my grief, even with therapists. Thus I can highly recommend Jeff.

Jeff had been a great support in working through a number of issues I had been struggling to make progress on alone (anger, stress, boundaries with step-son, frustration with elder-care, and staying aligned as a couple). Jeff is a great listener, and he helped me put mechanisms in place to let off steam, see myself more clearly and be healthier in my reactions to hot buttons. Much appreciated, highly recommended.

Jeff is compassionate, thoughtful and clearly very experienced. He uses a combination of theory, experience and practical examples to explore and support and his sessions run at just the right speed that you are left with enough food for thought and applications to take and explore for the time afterwards without feeling overwhelmed. Its only been a very short time that we have been talking, so I am sure there is still much more to discuss and explore and unpack... but so far it has been a great and rewarding experience.

I can’t even begin to explain how much this man has helped me turn my life around. I really was down and almost out when we began working together and now I see totally new person looking back in the mirror, a person at peace.
So many lessons learned and revelations made, it’s hard to put a finger on the most important. However for me, the most valuable aspect of our time together has been the regular communication and non-judgemental approve Jeff has taken towards me.
Before going down the therapy road, I was skeptical and had resisted any kind of therapy for years. Now, I have recommended this kind of therapy to numerous, friends, family and colleagues.
I am very much grateful to Jeff for everything that he has done for me. It really has changed everything.

Thank you very much, Jeff. You're the best therapist I've ever had.
