If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, addictions, mental health crises, and/or suicidal ideation/self-harm, and you're looking for support navigating these challenges, but you're afraid of regular talk therapy or had negative experiences in the past, I can promise you, I take a unique, person centered approach and prioritize client needs and wants from therapy. I want you to feel in charge of your counselling! I work with both adults, and children and youth and can help the family work together to meet you or your child's needs!
I take a person centered approach and prioritize client needs and wants from therapy. I am trained in solution-focused, narrative, response-based, drama therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. If talk therapy scares you, drama therapy may be a great alternative!
I can help you navigate the many challenges you're facing right now; be it family, friendships, parenting, school, and/or regular life challenges! Reach out for a free 30 minute consultation, to make sure you feel I'm a good fit for you! Counselling is a deeply personal choice and you deserve to find the right fit!
