Therapists in Charlottetown, PE

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** If you are searching for a way to change or improve something in your life (i.e. tackling out-of-control stress levels, enhancing communication with significant others, handling criticism more effectively, dealing with difficult individuals, handling challenging situations at work, home, or within relationships), then Solution Focused Brief Therapy is for you. Engage in solution talk. Clients leave with next steps, even after one session. A tri-phase model of counselling, clients are able to articulate their best hopes and dreams for their lives and leave with concrete next steps to reach those goals.

I work with children, youth, and adults who may have symptoms associated with learning disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, and autism spectrum disorder. Working with my clients, their families, schools, and primary health teams I assist my clients in clearly defining the issues they are facing, making diagnostic conclusions, and coming up with a holistic treatment plan to help them move forward towards their personal, academic, or professional goals.

Life can be challenging at times and most of us, one day or another, have felt lost and lonely. Some people can rely on friends and family members for support, but not everybody has this chance and at times they may not be the best persons to be impartial or to understand what is at the heart of the matter. I worked in quite different settings (ex., schools, health system, correctional institutions), so I have no judgment when it comes to how fragile or mixed up we, humans, can be. A therapeutic relationship implies commitment, honesty, courage and mutual trust. I tend to have a direct approach; if you feel ready, I am :)

I am an advocate for emotional health education, and expression. I also work with highly sensitive adults who experience challenges relating. Often these challenges are expressed in relationship to romantic partners, but may extend into how one relates to the world around them. I work with individuals to explore and develop security, and a connection to self - first.

Trauma has a way of showing up in an intrusive way, it shows up with no real reference point for, it brings up discomfort and leaves us with this sufferance and pain. Taking the first step can be hard, while finding new meaning and growth is possible, it takes courage and vulnerability. I am here to walk alongside you, on your journey back to your authentic self.

Feel stuck, anxious, depressed, or lonely? Does “I'm not good enough.", "There must be something wrong with me.", "I'm such a loser/idiot/fraud." sound familiar? In a tireless cycle of earning/proving/performing/pleasing? Guess what? Your beliefs aren’t always true. Yet they can run your life & they correlate directly with how you feel & behave. It doesn’t have to be that way. You can experience emotional freedom & feel at home within yourself. In a deep & direct process (hard but not as painful as you think & so worth it) I help people heal & clear the old blocks they have about who they think they are & how they should be.
