Mission
To provide a safe space for women to be heard, supported and empowered.
Approach
Drawing on over 15 years of experience and training, Annabel's treatment approach combines the best of psychological science with mind body techniques, to help her clients experience deep healing, transformation and positive change.
Having worked with many women over the years, Annabel realized that no single method was completely effective for helping her clients. What worked best was a holistic method, one that addresses the mind (thoughts), the body (emotions) and the soul (being).
Annabel's holistic method combines cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with mindfulness meditation and body psychotherapy to help her clients fully heal. Her approach is solution focused and very practical, helping her to facilitate fast results and rapid transformation for her clients.
In addition to being a psychotherapist, Annabel is a certified health and wellbeing coach and is passionate about teaching her clients how to self heal and manage their own wellbeing. She uses a holistic approach that addresses multiple dimensions of wellbeing, including physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
