Therapist Cherie Dorotich
Director
Clinical & Organisational Integrative Therapist
“To inspire others to look beyond their limits and see themselves as ‘potential in action’, with the power to effect, create, and grow.”
In both our personal or work worlds, we see the influence of our trauma in our perceptions, behaviours, and experiences. If we start with our own trauma, we have the opportunity to be the spark of ‘potential in action’ – to journey our own transformation.
