“The work is a commitment to be with people – not pushing them from behind or leading them from the front”. I am here to meet you where you are at – at your own pace – to deal with hardship, build resilience, and make lasting change in your life.
I believe in allyship and collaboration when working with clients. My greatest hope is that clients feel safe and validated in our work together. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) - based interventions.
While my counselling approach includes a variety of modalities, I customize my approach to individual needs, strengths, and preferences. It can be difficult reaching out for support. My hope is to make this process as smooth as possible. Find me at www.giapsychology.com or call me at 825-863-1871 to learn more.
