Do you feel emotionally exhausted & worn out by life? As Registered Wellness Counsellor, I provide a nurturing, compassionate space in which all ages and any issues, esp. depression, grief & PTSD are embraced in a spirit of unconditional care. I'll help you GROW and build your STORY towards wholeness through solution-focused CBT, Mindfulness Stress Reduction, Expressive Arts & Narrative. My work includes evidence-based assessments & reports...I am dedicated to help you stop self-sabotaging self-talk, to be free of unwarranted shame, fear; self-doubt & change unhelpful perceptions/attitudes. Start to feel BETTER & HEAL today...
As memoir-writer of "The Dandelion Diary: The Tricky Art of Walking" ( A Story of finding hope within pain), I'll help you craft your own STORY: YOUR new story of finding resilience and POWER. Grow your story through expressive arts eg. collage, narrative, drama and dance which build self-esteem & have great neuropsychological benefits...
I'd like to invite anyone to experience healing, to IMPROVE and to find your own roaring/ nuanced/unique VOICE. You will find poetry in the pain and clarity in the chaos of life so that a sense of meaning and purpose will clearly emerge for you. Together, we'll find the gift in your grief through challenging distorted perceptions. Re-kindle HOPE again...
