Saturday appointments available. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts of Professional Counseling from Ottawa University. I have a concentration on Trauma Abuse and Depravation, EMDR certified, 12 years of experience in the counseling field working in the following areas; anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, sexual, physical and mental abuse, attachment issues, self-esteem issues, shame, anger management, relationships issues, alcohol and substance abuse, addictive behaviors, life transitions, grief and loss and domestic violence.
Life can be challenging at times, and I really believe that life struggles are an opportunity to pause on your journey to reflect and to learn new positive perspectives and grow in all areas of your life. I'm committed to helping clients achieve realistic goals in order continue their journey process.
La vida puede ser desafiante a veces, pero en verdad yo creo que esos tiempos dificiles son una oportunidad de hacer una pausa en tu jornada para aprender perspectivas mas positivas que te ayudaran a crecer y continuar en tu jornada de vida. Como seres humanos estamos evolucionamos cada dia con pequenos cambios que pueden ser muy gratificantes!
