As a registered social worker, I am deeply committed to creating a safe, empathetic space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Guided by the person-centered approach, I strive to foster genuine connections with each person I work with. As Carl Rogers so eloquently put it, "The first simple feeling I want to share with you is my enjoyment when I can really hear someone." This quote resonates deeply with me, as I believe that truly being heard is a profound and healing experience. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey towards growth, self-discovery and empowerment.
I am looking to offer services in Psychosocial Services, in areas such as: 1. Crisis Intervention 2. Trauma 3. Substance Use (Addiction) 4. Mental Health Emotional Logic is also a key aspect of my expertise.
Hi. My name is Barbara. I'm here to listen and support you in any way I can. If you're willing, can you tell me more about what's been going on and how I can best support you?".
