Therapists in Antigonish, NS
I work primarily with children, youth, families and young adults (college, university aged). I have diverse experience working with children, parents and young adults in university/college who are dealing with anxiety, depression, school, family or life stressors. I have a particular interest in working with children to young adults who are managing living with concussions or illness (themselves or in within their family). My approach is to work with my clients to come up with goals based on a combination of their concerns and my clinical assessment to help find a therapeutic plan that will be most helpful for my clients.

I am passionate about supporting individuals to live their lives as fully as possible. We often focus our energy on our 'to do' lists and our responsibilities to others - putting our own needs on the back burner. Counselling allows individuals to identify their challenges and strengths, and replenish their energy, enjoyment and well-being. Individual contexts and issues will be varied - in fact, that is part of what I love about this work.

If you find yourself struggling with aspects of your life and feeling overwhelmed with how to cope, I believe that therapy could be a beneficial experience for you. Many people experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, feelings of hopelessness, or struggle with things like relationships or coping with stress and trauma, and aren't sure where to start. I provide therapy to adults (19+) who are looking to make changes and learn new skills to start a more positive and healthy life.

My ideal client is someone who is wanting to feel heard and understood. Each client has their own array of unique experiences and it is therefore the ultimate goal to better understand the self and interactions with others and the world around them. Once this is achieved we can together facilitate change through new perspectives.
