As you navigate through the complexities of life, it's not uncommon to feel overwhelmed or disconnected from your goals and desires. My name is Teresa, and as a professional counsellor, I'm here to offer you a supportive, confidential space to explore these challenges. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, struggling with relationship issues, or simply needing guidance as you face major life transitions, my goal is to help you find clarity and peace. Together, we will work towards overcoming these challenges and understanding and growing from them.
What sets me apart is my commitment to truly listening and understanding.
I specialize in providing tailored therapeutic support that addresses the unique psychological needs of each individual. My expertise lies in combining evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to craft a personalized treatment plan that targets your specific issues.
I understand that reaching out for help can be daunting, but remember that taking the first step is often the most challenging part of the journey towards healing and self-discovery. In our sessions, you will find a compassionate and supportive environment where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.
