Life can be very challenging. We are sometimes faced with situations that are beyond our control, such as the loss of a loved one or the actions of our partners and families. We are not always in control of the experiences life gives us, but we are in control of how we deal with them. At times even our own actions or decisions cause us stress and pain. Whichever journey it is that you need to explore in order to heal and grow, remember to reach out for help. You do not have to go through it alone.
I am a registered Specialist Wellness Counsellor. I follow an integrative approach to counselling in order to cater to the specific needs of the individual. I believe a person should be treated as a holistic being to find true solutions.
It can be difficult to ask for help or even admit that we need help. Whether you are embarking on your journey of grief, seeking assistance in your relationship, or simply seeking to start a journey of self-development. I would like to work with you, to assist you in achieving your therapeutic goals in a warm and supportive environment.
