My goal is to help and inspire others by using empowering approaches, working collaboratively, and reminding clients that it is not always about "the problem" as people come equipped with some of their own solutions!
I work with individuals, couples and families to help remove barriers and negative patterns that can impede happiness and emotional health.
My approach with clients is empowerment based and positive with respect in regards to people's beliefs and values. I am genuine and non-judgemental and have a natural ability to connect with people of all ages. I provide guidance and therapy in regards to a variety of issues affecting children and impacting adults in their relationships, families and workplaces.
I am a warm and positive person who brings energy and humour to the counselling relationship and is driven to help my clients find solace in whatever it is that brings them to counselling.
My commitment to you is to help you start gaining an understanding of the issue in ways that you can connect to and make sense of. We will begin to work towards solutions as soon as possible, at a pace that is comfortable for you.
I can work in a very structured manner and provide "tools" to support you, or if preferred in a way that processes things from "outside the box"...you choose.
I bring over 10 years of experience in counselling and therapy working with adults, children, couples and families. I am an active participant in peer consultation and ongoing professional development to remain current in my clinical skills and am bound to a comprehensive Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.
I look forward to our work together!
