Therapy is an individual therapeutic process with a collaborative effort given by both the therapist and the client. As we focus through the lens of the whole person of the client: emotional, physical and spiritual. It is through that lens a greater understanding can be gauged. The overall goal is progress, not perfection. The collaborative work is done with unconditional positive regard and empathy. We face many challenges in life and those challenges can affect our daily life. However, the challenges we can encounter can become strengths and a platform to catapult us into our purpose.

As a Therapist, I work with a deep sense of compassion and curiosity to provide the best support in a sacred- therapeutic space processing thoughts, feelings, emotions, and beliefs. The process usually entails asking difficult questions about the perpetual positioning and interpretations of past/ current situations. I'm curious to see what will emerge during our sessions and how the shift in perspective will create a more empowering version of yourself.

The Avery Centre has experienced and compassionate therapists ready to help children and adults suffering from trauma, grief, loss, and/or PTSD. After a crisis, loss, or trauma, each individual has their own way of grieving, and coping. Sadness, guilt, shock, anger, frustration, rage, and feelings of helplessness may occur. The healing process may begin with the passage of time and the support of loved ones; however, professional help may be needed for support during the initial shock of the situation and later on while experiencing different stages of the grief cycle. The Avery Centre was created to provide clients with support, guidance, understanding, and empathy during these most difficult times.
