As a "Generalist" counsellor, I utilize various treatment modalities as per the needs/issues presented by my client. My role as I see it, is to "lead by following". The goals developed are the goals of the client. I actively support the counselling process by identifying issues, events, relationships that facilitate a deeper understanding as to what the client needs from counselling, in order for them to find resolution within. Some of my modalities may include Family Systems, Narrative, Mindfulness-Cognitive, Existential, and Psycho-Dynamic.

I provide person centered counselling and mediation services to individuals, couples and families. I use a brief solution focused approach as well as cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness practices. My approach focuses on empathetic listening, solutions, and moving issues and relationships forward. I have a proven track record in assisting people to collaborate and to effect positive change in their lives and relationships. I value your privacy and all aspects of the sessions are confidential.

Living with ADHD can make everyday life feel overwhelming at times, with challenges like managing focus, regulating emotions, or keeping up with responsibilities. In psychotherapy (talk therapy), I’ll help you understand how your ADHD shapes your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we’ll develop routines, coping strategies, and systems that work with your brain while addressing emotional and cognitive blocks. The goal is to help you build self-trust, resilience, and a greater sense of balance, confidence, and clarity in your life.
