Person Centred Counsellor

My name is Sylvia Friend and I would like to invite you to meet with me online in the comfort of your own home. Through presence, I offer a space to talk about what ever may be worrying you.  At times we may feel lonely, isolated and overwhelmed with worries. Those closest to us may not be the help we need and can at times seem to add to the problem.  

I meet you as an individual and as such the interactive approach is tailored to your need. I will help you access your own process which can bring about a deeper understanding of yourself.

We all experience difficult times in our lives. For some it can be a crisis, for others life can feel like an ongoing struggle and lack meaning. I would like to help you meet lives challenges with confidence and live a more authentic way, your way of being.

Health and Well-being

For more than 25 years I have been involved in personal growth, health and well being.  Looking experientially at the heart mind and body connection. The patterns, memories and habits stored in the mind/body which prevent us from being who we truly are.

My personal and main practice is Hua Gong a form of Qigong.  I am a teacher of this method and a practitioner for  more than  25 years.  The practice is an enabler. A way to connect to the universal energy known as Qi.  The way of teaching is through an energy or Qi transmission.  This may be through physical movements, meditation, verbal communication and demonstration. Through the energy transmission your own Qi (pronounced chi) is activated to enable your own inner process to unfold. The benefits apart from improving ones health include unlocking artistic potentials and aiding spiritual growth to live more fully and authentically.   By practising it helps to bring about transformations and move through problems.  Helping to see and transform both inner and outer challenges with greater understanding and clarity.
