Using CBT, mindfulness, and a client-centered approach, I guide clients towards change and emotional resistance.
As a psychotherapist, I can work with a client(adult &adolescent) who is seeking personal growth and emotional healing. They may struggle with issues like anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma, but they have a deep desire for self-awareness and positive change. Their needs include emotional safety, support, and tools to navigate their challenges. Their goals often centre around finding balance, improving their relationships, and building resilience. They want to understand themselves better and develop coping strategies to lead a more fulfilling life, motivated by the desire to break free from patterns that no longer serve them.

Do you ever feel like you "can't see the wood for the trees?" Despite our best efforts, we only know, what we know, when we know it. We aren’t always able to see, understand or even accept what we’re experiencing. Instead, we struggle against our reality and try to cope by resisting, avoiding, hiding, controlling or denying it. Does this sound familiar? Well you're not alone. It's tough and it’s a universal experience for us all.

I ask questions when it seems important, I acknowledge behavioural patterns when I see them and I challenge clients where I see fit.

Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Counsellors

How does cognitive behavioural therapy work?

Cognitive behavioural therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophising or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioural therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioural therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioural therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
