Discover life in abundance
Welcome to Abundance Practice
An enjoyable, full life is something we all desire.
But for many of us, painful experiences, challenging circumstances and unhelpful patterns have left us feeling unhappy, uncertain and unfulfilled. At times, it can feel nearly impossible to find a way forward.
At Abundance Practice, my hope is to help you discover a sense of abundance – even in the difficult seasons.
Using a supportive and collaborative approach, I help clients to process, gain insight and develop the skills needed to move forward in life. My desire is not only for clients to heal, but to grow and flourish.

Testimonials
“Charné helped me process past hurt and trauma at a time when I felt like I was spiralling. She created a space where I felt safe enough to truly open up. She has an incredible ability to understand people and make them feel heard, I never once felt misunderstood. Her guidance consistently brought clarity, ultimately helping me make sense of and find purpose in what I had gone through. I have recommended friends to Charné and I will continue to do so! She has been pivotal in helping me heal and move forward.”
“I enjoyed Sessions with Charné. She was with me in the process of identifying cognitive patterns and my tendency to rationalize emotions. Every session, I walked out with a better understanding of self, thanks to her pattern recognition, attentiveness, and insight. She made me feel like there was no pressure for any performance, and just showing up was enough.”
“Charné’s passion and commitment to wellness has been evident from the moment I reached out to her for the first time. Her patience with my volatile schedule has been reassuring. She blends her assistance with principles she learnt from her studies and balances it with pure human compassion. She maintains good relationships with other psychologists and medical practitioners so that she can refer her patients to them, if necessary. She handles sensitive experiences with gentleness, and cares very much for her clients. I recommend her.”
