I believe we all go through struggles and experiences in life where we may need extra support to rise above. I provide an empathetic and holistic approach to building trust and open communication within our counselling relationship. I am also open-minded and am culturally inclusive.
The therapeutic approaches I use are through the lens of Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Person-Centered, Attachment and Family Systems Theories. At times, I use a CBT and DBT approach to encourage mindful thinking. I work with children, youth and adults. In addition, my background has been in education, working with children and youth with diverse needs.
When the strategies and tools are no longer working, allow me to work collaboratively with you to find the answers and insights you seek. I would be deeply honoured to work alongside you to help you find your road to healing and recovery.
Take the first step to help. Call or Loretta Thorgeirson now - (778) 745-6062
