Online Counselling for L4J

Do you feel stuck? Relationship problems, lack of confidence, anxiety--these are just some of the reasons that people feel unhappy. LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO STRUGGLE ALONE. I have many years of experience in the mental health field and I enjoy helping my clients to identify and work through their blocks to leading a happy and emotionally healthy life. I am down to earth, easy to talk to and I have a good sense of humour. I am open-minded and motivated to listen to your needs and and help you to formulate a plan for moving forward.

My approach to therapy is empowering, compassionate, and focuses on assisting clients to gain insight in order to enhance their understanding of themselves and their situations. Together we explore possible ways to manage and relieve distress and suffering, and achieve lasting and meaningful change. Within the context of unconditional acceptance and non-judgement, this means clients can develop more adaptive ways of coping, relating to others, develop deeper connections, and be responsible and in control of themselves and their emotions.

My main therapy model is cognitive-behaviour therapy, which means I help clients to change their ways of thinking and how they engage their lives, in order to help clients to achieve their personal life goals. I also work from a motivational interviewing/counselling framework for people who are seeking to make important life decisions or who need help with making change or improving their health behaviours. I work with patients with problems with anxiety, depression, relationships, problems making life decisions, sexual functioning problems, and coping with chronic diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, HIV, and pain.
