Description

Sometimes we feel “stuck”, “frustrated”, “sad”, “confused”, and “hopeless”. And, sometimes we don’t know what we are feeling at all. It is OK to feel all of these feelings, and it’s OK not to know what we are feeling. My goal is to help you make sense of your feelings, and help you reach your personal goals by gaining a better understanding of yourself and the world around you.

I incorporate various techniques and integrate my knowledge to suit your unique individual needs by providing a safe and non-judgmental space. This will help us gain a better understanding of you and your circumstance.

Summary

At LifeCycle Counselling we recognize how difficult it is to take the first step towards therapy, speak about your difficulties and explore uncomfortable emotions. We are a diverse group of therapists, many of whom have had our own mental health challenges and obstacles. We use client-centered approaches because we understand how important it is to meet you where you are. We respect differences, opinions, values, and attitudes. Many of our team members have extensive experience in dealing with a wide variety of issues and are familiar with various therapeutic modalities.
