We all go through challenging times in our lives. Many of us decide to seek counselling when we feel stuck, unsure how to move forward in a relationship with a spouse, child, sibling, or parent; or a colleague or co-worker. At these times, we can be anxious, depressed, angry, easily irritated, or simply depleted. Intense feelings or responses are often a sign that something important needs to be addressed.
I bring a flexible approach and diversity of experience to the counselling relationship which adapts to work best for you. I provide a warm, compassionate, safe, and confidential environment. Working together, the focus is on resolving underlying issues and highlighting strengths, coping skills, and supports, such as community, beliefs, and values.
I value the inherent worth of each individual and welcome clients of all cultures and identities. Take that first step to contact me by email or phone. Through our work together you will build confidence in your abilities, gain an appreciation of your own potential, and be better equipped to face life's challenges. I look forward to hearing from you!
