Description
I work with adults of all backgrounds and ages, with experience with older adults and people from international backgrounds. I have training in Psychology, Social Work, Adult Education and intercultural communication. I use therapy approaches such as ACT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems Therapy. I provide a safe, accepting and compassionate environment for you to work through your challenges. I am a skilled listener and draw on a range of tools and therapeutic approaches, as well as the wisdom that comes with experience. I am respectful of who and how you are.
