Kirsten will sit with you through your experience and help you to process and understand any issues that have caused you distress.  Kirsten recognises how vulnerable you may feel in seeking help and in revealing your innermost thoughts so she will meet you with the respect, kindness and support that you deserve for taking this brave step to reach out for help.   As a mother herself, Kirsten can relate to your experience and offers a compassionate approach to strengthening your wellbeing.
