The clients I work with may present with a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, school issues, or self-harming behaviours. They might be struggling to manage their emotions and behaviours and want assistance in achieving their therapeutic goals. I also support parents who want to learn ways in which they can best support their child during these difficult times. The parents I work with may struggle to manage their child's outbursts or meltdowns. I help them be more in tune with their child's emotions and provide strategies that help enhance their relationship with their child.
I have a passion for working with children (6+), adolescents, families, and adults (up to 55). I thrive to create a warm and trusting environment. I use a holistic and strength-based approach to counselling and use various therapeutic interventions including CBT, DBT, collaborative problem solving, mindfulness, and emotion coaching.
If you are thinking about counselling for yourself or your child, searching for the right therapist who you feel will be best suited for your family is the first step. I would be happy to hear from you and assist you on this therapeutic journey.
