MEET YOUR Counsellor
Recha Gries, Psychosynthesis Counsellor
Hi I am Recha, counselling therapist for over 8 years, single mum (because looking after an adult child alongside an actual child was not an option for me) and about to hit the peri-menopause! All my life, people have found it easy to open up to me. After working in various fields such as event management, travel, and banking, I eventually studied counselling and have never looked back.
Originally from Germany, I have always been fascinated by the human psyche and how our past experiences, societal norms, and cultural backgrounds shape our worldview and influence our behaviour. Some of these experiences can feel like shackles, preventing us from feeling like free agents in our own lives. I myself had to free myself from the idea that my career was set in stone. Quitting a well-paying job to become a counsellor was a leap of faith, but it has given true meaning to my life. In my practice, I work with clients to discover what gives their lives meaning and how they can work towards a life that feels genuinely their own. My approach is grounded in the belief that we all have incredible potential and that by understanding what limits us, we can find ways to live up to that potential.
In my personal life, I am a mother to a little one, and I cherish spending time dancing, attending festivals, and engaging with my local community. These activities bring joy and balance to my life, allowing me to connect with others and share meaningful experiences.
