Are you experiencing anxiety that you never had before and you are wondering why? Are you feeling overwhelmed with life’s challenges? Are you feeling angry at times as a result? Now more than ever people are struggling to find balance and feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain on how to manage the challenges in their life. At Serenity Counselling no issue is seen as less important or not as severe as another. I believe in equality across all clients and building a therapeutic relationship around that.
I specialize in supporting individuals through the counselling process who may be experiencing anxiety, and/or anger. I am also certified in Perinatal Mental Health to support both parents through their journey, as well as I have a background in behaviour therapy that allows me to also assist in supporting children who may be dealing with behavioural issues.
My hope is that we will work together in our sessions to identify your concerns and find ways to manage them that best suit your individual needs. Overall, I want my clients to feel heard, and that they are in a safe, non-judgemental environment and that they can leave the session feeling lighter and better able to manage life's challenges.

Client-centered or person-centered therapy is a non-directive humanistic approach that places the focus of the session on the client. In this approach, the client is the expert of their own life, and the therapist is simply the guide. This approach can integrate other models as necessary for each client to increase their awareness, build their toolkit, and help their overall healing process.
