This comes with 7 years of formal education, plus multiple practicums where skills are developed to ensure clients are getting the services they need. Our educations are supported by our own journeys, too.

Life is often filled with struggles and crisis that can be overwhelming. Counselling with me is a careful and respectful exploration of your challenges and an opportunity to develop your own personal resources.I am a Registered Social Worker and a Registered Clinical Counsellor.

Your life is important, and so are your problems. Getting beyond them is not always a straightforward path, and often you need timely help and experienced counsel. In short you need someone you can be safe with and trust to help you find the solutions to your situation. That may be where you find yourself today. I have thirty-five years of counselling experience in dealing with people that are in distress, and facing life problems that are troubling. Whether it is about yourself or a relationship of importance to you, I can be of help.

My goal as a counsellor is to create a safe and supportive space using a strengths-based approach. Together, we will explore stressors and concerns, set goals, and celebrate accomplishments. I offer 10 minute consultations where we discuss your hopes and goals for counselling. I work with youth, adults and couples who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and sexual difficulties, and life transitions. I also am experienced in working with trauma and PTSD, specifically historical childhood sexual abuse and sexualized violence.

Trauma impacts how we see the world, navigate through our experiences, and connect with others. Even though you are not the product of a single experience or relationship, one experience can feel so overwhelming that it overtakes over all others. Together, you can start to dream about what life will look like if this problem or memory wasn't an obstacle anymore. What would be different? And what strengths and resources do you already carry with you to start that process.

I believe a journey of discovery and alignment can lead to a deeper relationship to self.

Male mental health challenges such as depression, relationship conflict and anxiety are not that much different than women's. These challenges can hold us in place, in fear, in hopelessness, in pain. Confronting behaviours, thinking and feelings that may be the root of a life not lived well takes courage. Sometimes we need help doing that to move us forward and improve the quality of our life. You may be struggling on your own or in a relationship. It doesn't matter neither place feels good. My intent is to help you navigate the obstacles and make sense of your story so you can get to where you want to be sooner.

Hi, I am Andressa Taverna. Being a trauma survivor has moulded me and impacted my life in many obvious and also many mysterious ways. Numbing out and dissociating has helped me bear the trauma, but burying it deep and pretending it didn’t exist never really worked. It was only when I started looking at it and inviting my demons to come forward, to speak up, to scream out their rage, that what I saw behind it was pain. Eventually, I saw that they were not demons after all, but my inner child.

Our working relationship is focused on achieving positive change in your life. I believe that counselling provides clients with the conditions and support they need to overcome problems and live their life more fully. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with a MA in Counselling Psychology. I have been in private practice since 2003 working with individuals, couples and families. My graduate research focused on attachment, trauma and couple relationships.

I am skilled in trauma, grief, relationship and addiction counselling, and teach many other necessary life skills, which I facilitates through workshops and groups. I help to create a routine that is balanced and transferable into anyone's life. I focus on building self worth and esteem, creating skills for healthy, happy relationships. Empower individuals to live a life free of addictions and behaviours that cause consequences and negative feelings. I encourage people to identify the inner dialogue that persists with negativity, put downs and beliefs that aren't serving them well and replace those with love and kindness.
