Why choose me as your counsellor?

I understand how hard it can be when you are struggling. I’ve experienced my own challenges in life and know firsthand the benefits of therapy.

First, my migration to Australia as a young girl left me feeling lost, alone, unsecured and overwhelmed with grief for my home country. Later, in my 30’s I went through another period of unrest where I became a single mother and the sole parent for my 3 children. During this time I started professional counselling for myself and found creative therapies extremely helpful. I could get in touch with my emotions quicker than in Talk therapy and therefore I was able to make better decisions on how I want to live my life.

Counselling helped me to become a stronger person and inspired me to become a counsellor. I decided that I wanted to help others as I had been helped.

I have been practicing therapy as a trained Art Therapist and a Counsellor for the last 9 years. I have been in private practice since 2006, and work in the community and various organisations as an art therapist. I am a well-informed counsellor and empathic listener. I treat all people with respect and acceptance, and provide a safe and welcoming space for you to be heard.

Counselling can help. You do not have to struggle on your own.

This is what some of the participants said about their work with me:
“Every time I finish a session with Dalit I look with amazement at the work I produce! I see things a lot clearer and I can see how far I progressed in my journey”. Ms A.

“Describing the benefits of art therapy is like trying to describe how you feel when you hear your favourite song. It is deeply personal and enriching and can only be felt by experiencing it for yourself. It has been one of the most enjoyable activities I have experienced. Ms K.

“I couldn’t believe what a big shift I felt after the art therapy session I had with Dalit. My awareness of how I am in the world changed. I felt the most important thing in my life at this moment is to be true to my self.
I am very grateful for this awareness!” Mrs S.
