Are you hoping to make a change in your life? Are you going through a transition or challenge that is asking more of you than you feel equipped to handle? Are you having a hard time in one or more of your relationships? It takes a lot of courage to reach out for support. It is my hope that we can work together to make this period of change or tension just a little bit easier and to find a meaningful way forward.
I draw from existential, feminist, humanistic, structural, and anti-oppressive theories in my counselling practice. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families, using an integrative approach that is tailored to your unique situation. I have worked in various social work roles in education, community services, and homecare settings since 2014.
My hope is to work together to facilitate the change you are seeking. Counselling fit is important, so I am happy to connect for a conversation over the phone or to respond to any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you!
