Accepting New Clients. When you find yourself going through a life transition, feeling anxious or depressed, or grieving a loss, you might feel confused and overwhelmed. Often our thoughts and feelings get tangled with expectations leaving us unsure about how to move forward in our lives. Together we will explore what is working for you and what parts of your self are being challenged. By developing greater self-awareness and practicing self-acceptance, you will begin to discover new ways to grow and strengthen as a person. When you know yourself better you can begin to intercept unhealthy patterns of living as they emerge.
I work with individuals and couples using multiple approaches including Psychoanalytic, Humanistic and some Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) theories. I have worked for many decades as a suicide and crisis counsellor, a visual artist and professor, and a parent. For our sessions I provide a safe and non-judgemental space to explore your thoughts and feelings.
Feeling truly heard can be invaluable. When you are ready I offer a free 15-minute phone conversation to get to know each other a little. I look forward to helping you enhance your life and well-being! Evenings and weekends available.
