My Approach

I offer individualized counselling to young adults and adults based upon a belief that we are all connected through our suffering but at the same time not defined by it.  Although we all suffer – we can heal and learn to cope in ways that serve us better.

 I have experience working with:

• addiction and substance use

• Anxiety

• depression

• childhood trauma

• Post traumatic Stress Disorder

• concurrent disorders

• addiction and childhood trauma

• grief and loss

• loneliness

• life transitions

• suicide

• gender and sexual identity

Each person requires a unique approach. I work collaboratively and set goals with each person as you decide what is best for you.

The following are therapies, philosophies and modalities that I use in my work:

•  Client centred

• Strengths based

• Solution focused

• Anti-oppressive

• Eye Movement, Desensitizing and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy,

• psycho dynamic approach

• Mediation and Mindfulness
