I work with adults, youth, children, and families. I use a strength-based approach to address concerns, and draw on the theories of narrative, response-based, cognitive behavioural and emotion focused therapy in my work. I also specialize in EMDR, an evidence-based trauma-focused therapy that addresses many mental health challenges. I also employ arts-based approaches, incorporating music and visual arts, especially when working with children and youth.
I believe that human beings have the capacity to change and are resilient. It is through life's challenges that we grow and become stronger, more integrated individuals. As Rumi wrote: "The wound is the place where the light enters you."
Counselling can help in times of challenge by offering a space to be heard without judgment, to explore solutions, and to expand perspectives on healing and wellness. Essential to my practice is the belief that you are the expert on your life and experience. I appreciate Irvin Yalom's approach to the therapeutic relationship as one of "fellow travellers."
