My approach to counselling is strengths based, person centred and collaborative. I help clients to optimize strengths, build resilience and cultivate growth.
I work with people who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief & loss, relationship issues, work and/or academic stress, substance abuse and specialize in working with adults who have experienced childhood trauma. I focus working on emotional regulation skills that can be applied to life situations.
I truly believe that all individuals possess resilience, inner strengths and many of the skills to overcome their difficulties. For this reason, I practice from a holistic and strengths-based approach to help individuals explore their strengths and resources in order to rediscover their authentic self.
