My practice is person-centered, strength-based, trauma informed. I think that each person coming to therapy is unique. Each person attempts to do the best possible with the resources available. Each person has wisdom, creativity, and strength, and is the authority in their life. Doing counselling means providing a safer space for you to tell your story. And it is a space for us to have conversations and to work together.
The focus of my work is trauma informed practice that addresses interpersonal violence that includes sexualized violence, racialized violence, workplace violence, and partner violence. Also, I work with issues of loss, grief, and issues of suicidality. Supporting family members whose loved ones ended their lives is critical to my work.
I spent time working with diverse people. It was not surprising when my close family and friends had re-directed me from one career path and towards becoming a clinical counsellor. They suggested that the work of a clinical counsellor is a better fit since I offer compassionate care by dignifying others and instilling hope.
