I use an eclectic approach including providing psychoeducation around physiology and the neurobiology/biochemistry of mental health, as well as use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems informed, Narrative Exposure Therapy (Trauma), Adlerian, Somatic Therapy, Interpersonal Neurobiology, solution focused and strengths based techniques.
Notice: I am only accepting new clients with daytime availability (before 3pm). I work with children (ages 10 and up), youth and adults to build healthy coping skills and relationships within themselves and with others. My approach to counselling is to create a safe and collaborative environment for clients to feel supported, regardless of what they may be facing. I believe that everyone has the ability to grow and as such, my role in sessions is to facilitate and support clients in developing deeper self-awareness and expanding coping skills to help them regulate their bodies.

Seeking and accepting help are the first steps in managing your mental health, and I know how hard these first steps can be. My goal is to create a warm and inviting safe space to assist you with these steps, whether this be your first, or continued experience In counselling. All emotions and experiences deserve validation, and I aim to be the empathetic and non judgmental buffer to help navigate the difficult situations life throws at us.

Family Therapy Counsellors

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
