Miss Henrietta Kovacs

Certified Professional Counselor

Maybe you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or quietly detached from life — you are not alone. You might be carrying grief, old pain, or a sense that you are no longer sure who you are. And yet… some part of you still hopes for more. I see that part. You may be navigating questions of identity and belonging, holding long-unspoken wounds or exploring your own sense of meaning or spirituality — in whatever form that takes for you. I am a trauma-informed counsellor with an international background. As a practising Christian, I am open to including faith and spiritual reflection in our work together, if that is something you wish to bring. I offer a calm, creative space where you do not have to explain everything perfectly. Whether you have lived across cultures or feel like you are in transition, this can be a place where your full story is welcomed. Over time, clients often say they feel more hopeful, more confident in themselves, and more empowered to navigate life in their own way. They begin to understand who they really are and start to imagine where they might go next. The change may be gentle, but it is deeply real. If something in you resonates with this, I would love to hear from you. You are welcome just as you are.
