about me

“We are born in relationship, we are wounded in relationship, and we can be healed in relationship.

Harville Hendrix

Whether you’re moving through a life transition, encountering obstacles in your relationships, or struggling with an uncomfortable personal truth, this exploratory journey can support your passage towards a more authentic and enriching life.

The therapeutic relationship is the cauldron that holds the potential for deeper self-inquiry, healing our wounded parts and catalysing personal change to reclaim more of who we are.

Within this safe holding space, we learn to see and experience our lives through a new lens and make better choices from a position of greater personal awareness, compassion, integrity and courage.

Committing to this work is about getting real with ourselves, facing our challenges, and addressing life’s unrelenting curveballs and contradictions to discover more aliveness in the here and now.

Testimonials

“Working with Dafna has been a really powerful experience. She has the ability to make her clients feel heard and cared for which creates a safe environment for opening up and being vulnerable. Over the last year, I feel like I have progressed leaps and bounds in my emotional development and I know that this is a direct result of the work Dafna and I have been doing."

Crystal

"Dafna continues to provide me with a space to heal, process and ponder. She encourages me to sit with seemingly incidental experiences a little bit longer or try a technique to explore what's in my thoughts. This approach has led to many realisations about myself and how I interact with the world. The comfort I feel during our sessions has made some of the more overwhelming parts of my life less dominating and I am truly grateful for her guidance."

Tessa

"I have seen many therapists, but have always struggled to find someone who has the intuitiveness and warmth as Dafna, with whom I immediately felt safe, supported and respected. Our sessions feel like a conversation - she is happy to make observations, to guide and make suggestions. Dafna's ability to draw connections between physical manifestations of stress and the subconscious has helped me to become more body-literate and proactive in responding to my emotional triggers. I highly recommend Dafna to anyone who is looking for a modern, collaborative and highly individualised approach to mental health."

Ilana

"I was hesitant at first to engage a therapist, but it turned into a very positive decision because of Dafna and her exceptional ability to listen, interpret and guide. She has been an amazing resource in equipping me to work through feelings and situations that have otherwise been inaccessible. I strongly recommend Dafna as a very talented therapist, who's skill seems to derive from a genuine interest to empathise and understand."
