“ You have to be so committed to make this work. You want to make sure you’ve got enough grit, enough guts. Enough resilience, enough tenacity, enough confidence…”
In this episode
Gabriella de Mori, registered counsellor and counselling practice owner shares her unique journey from working in Africa in women’s health projects to becoming a counsellor after a psychic suggested it.
Gabriella shares much wisdom through her experience and specialisation in counselling sensitive women and couples, emphasising a depth-oriented approach to therapy, contrasting it with more urgent and surface-level mental health care.
