I see clients in-person and online - am accepting new clients at this time. Life can feel overwhelming at times and all of us can benefit from outside help at some point in our lives. It takes courage to reach out for that help and so welcome to my page. I treat each client differently because we are all different. What is common though in my counselling, is my belief in a collaborative approach. Together we can prioritize issues so that you can become the best version of yourself - authentic and fulfilled.
Eg. I have lived experience with ADHD. Not a character flaw, but a form of neurodiversity. Coping strategies can help alot.
As an integrative counsellor, I use a variety of approaches depending upon the individual. These include Family Systems, Humanistic Counselling and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. Mindfulness is an evidence-based approach used for anxiety and depression. For ADHD, it can enhance focus and attention by bringing us into the here and now.
My priority is to offer a confidential/non-judgmental space in which we can work together on your current challenges. I work with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, loss, relationships and ADHD. Experienced in working with adolescents, individuals and I also offer couples counselling. Free 20 minute phone consultation is available - call today!
