I am glad that you have found your way here. It takes courage to reflect on life and discover that you are not entirely happy with how things are. Looking into resources to help is the first step in creating positive changes for your future. Together we can create a plan to help you on your journey to self-discovery. My approach to counselling is empathetic and client-centered. I work with clients aged 13 and above who are seeking support with various aspects of their life. There are multiple reasons for accessing therapy, and whether easy or difficult to discuss, I provide a safe space to explore your current situation.
I draw on multiple therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Brief Solution-Focused Therapy. I tailor my approach to meet each client's needs, and aim to work with you to create meaningful changes in your life.
A psychotherapist such as myself is someone who provides support, listens attentively, provides insight, strategies and feedback. If you are someone who is looking for a support person in your life, feel free to reach out to me and we can discuss your concerns further. I'm here to help.
