I am passionate about working with people who are seeking professional and compassionate support to address areas of distress in their lives. I believe that people are generally resilient and, at times, require support to inventory their coping skills - by tweaking existing skills and/or adding new tools to their coping toolbox - in order to live balanced lives.
I supervise clinical interns, RP(Q)s & RPs, offering $100 sessions, providing quality services. Furthermore, I bring over 25 years of experience working in the fields of addiction and trauma. I appreciate the strength it takes to keep going when faced with adversity. I enjoy working with people to find ways to heal and to move forward in their lives.
I recognize that it can be a big step to begin counselling or to connect with a new therapist. Anxiety is understandable. I encourage you to appreciate that seeking support is a strength. It can be so helpful to have a compassionate and caring companion on your healing journey.
