Are you a teen or young adult feeling overwhelmed by daily challenges and obstacles? Finding it difficult to manage school, work, relationships and personal identity? You are not alone, many people struggle to navigate these areas. Take a moment in a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without any judgment. As a therapist specializing in adolescent and young adult counselling, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where one can explore their thoughts, inner feelings and concerns openly.
By exploring trauma, perception, and recognizing attachment styles, individuals gain profound insight into their own psyche and behavioral patterns. Self-awareness lays the foundation for one to practice mindfulness, engage in self-reflection and identify their triggers.
With over 5 years of direct service experience I offer compassionate guidance and evidence-based approaches to assist with self-esteem, trauma, and the development of positive coping skills; while working towards building resilience, improving relationships and fostering a sense of empowerment.
