Summary

I’m a compassionate and detail oriented professional with extensive experience as a Medical Secretary, seeking to transition into a counselling role. I have recently completed a Diploma in Counselling, which has equipped me with valuable skills to ensure a well-rounded person-centred approach in my service based on mutual respect and trust. I am excited to utilize my newfound counselling expertise to transition into a counselling or case management space, where I can contribute to client well-being and support.
