Description
Life on this planet can be hard. Especially right now. There are ups and downs; pluses and minuses; stops and starts; joys and sorrows. Flux and flow. We all live within that. We don’t get a map or compass and, sometimes, we need help finding our way. Gail has 30+ years of clinical experience in private practice, counselling centres, and mental health clinics. She’s trained in DBT, ACT, CBT, and Polyvagal Theory, applying trauma-sensitive, emotionally-focused approaches.
