About Sylvia
Sylvia has more than 30 years’ experience and training in the health sciences including family therapy, humanistic counselling/psychotherapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Mindfulness practice, homeopathy and clinical supervision of students and practitioners. Her work includes curriculum development and teaching, leadership and mentoring of staff across the health, community and education sectors.
Sylvia’s interest in counselling and communication skills began with her work as a natural health practitioner where she observed that a significant number of her clients suffered from depression, anxiety, relationship issues or trauma. She is an advocate for and lifelong student in Buddhist informed Mindfulness Practice which she applies in the classroom, her clinical work and daily life. Her work is guided by the humanistic principles of integrity and authenticity. empathy creating a compassionate and safe space for her students and clients. Sylvia considers clinical work to be a journey that the client and therapist take together to find out what is not working in the client’s life, to discover more of who we are, and to explore new, more useful ways of thinking, feeling, acting, and being in the world. In addition to addressing the challenges and difficulties that life presents, Sylvia’s work also focuses on cultivating the strengths and resources that are already present in the client’s life.
