Description
It takes courage to step into the counselling process and focus on your healing and growth. I hold the utmost respect and admiration for my clients as they work to change unhealthy thoughts and behaviours, build stronger relationships, and heal from deep trauma. My therapeutic style brings kindness and warmth and I endeavour to create safety. My integrative approach combines cognitive and behavioural processes, somatic modalities, and emotional and mindfulness-based approaches. I am passionate about supporting youth, individual adults, and couples who are navigating challenges.
