I am a Specialist Wellness Counsellor registered with ASCHP. I believe that we all have a past, but we are not the past. Life gives each person a unique challenge that affects their self-esteem. I am passionate about bringing hope into people's lives by offering much-needed support and helping individuals create a sense of well-being and inner peace. I show empathy, compassion and give support to clients through self-empowerment, psycho social support, self-discovery, journey with them in discovering their potential and purpose.For someone to seek help is bravery, a non judgmental therapeutic environment is important and comforting.

work with clients who experience various mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression, anger, coping skills, behavioral issues, self-esteem in their lives or family. Utilizing their autonomy clients are empowered to make sustainable improvements. During the session through collaboration solutions are identified to resolve issues, and strategies.

Counselling session involves more than just words; I strive to communicate a deep understanding of clients experience from their own perspectives ,and display a personal connection with the client.Actively listening to client is critical to me, creating a safe space for talking.Words are a powerful tool which I use to name the feelings expressed by a client.

CBT and SFBT is often used in my practice. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we will look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. As we progress I will help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better, and identify solutions.
