I enjoy helping you discover your unique strengths that we can leverage to overcome your challenges and develop effective coping strategies.

Your present circumstances don’t determine where you go, they merely determine where you start

Approach to Counselling

The method I utilize the most in therapy is a Cognitive Behavioural approach. In my approach, I prioritize your well-being through a person-centered and strength-based Cognitive Behavioral therapy method. This allows us to work together at your own pace, helping you gain valuable insights into yourself and your situation. Together, we'll uncover the strengths within you that can be harnessed to overcome the challenges you face and develop effective coping strategies.

I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals, including youth and those with intellectual disabilities. Whether you're grappling with anxiety or depression, seeking to build healthy boundaries, or improving your communication in various relationships, I'm here to help you on your journey.

Remember, your feelings are valid, and you deserve to be heard. Let's team up to tackle your unique goals and find the path to a brighter, more fulfilling future. You don't have to go through it alone – I'm here to support you every step of the way.
