Banyan Tree Counselling

After spending most of my career in a corporate setting​,​ I’ve transitioned into a more purposeful and values-driven profession—counselling. My other passion in life is travelling and I have been fortunate enough to visit many countries over the years. I am passionate about travelling because it continually opens my mind to new perspectives and ways of life. Each journey offers a deeper understanding of different communities and fosters a genuine appreciation for the unique beauty within every culture. I find great joy in connecting with people from diverse backgrounds​,​ discovering the values and traditions that shape their lives. Travel​,​ for me​,​ is more than seeing new places — it is about building empathy​,​ expanding awareness​,​ and celebrating our shared humanity. I also have a Siamese cat; he was the only one left of a litter not adopted because he had behavioural problems​,​ so I decided to take him in and whilst it did take two years for him to truly trust and accept me​,​ it was well worth it. He is now bonded to me​,​ and we have many conversations in the evenings while he snuggles up next to me or on my head.
