"We are not determined by our experiences, but are self-determined by the meaning we give to them" - Alfred Adler
I am constantly amazed by the resilience and grit of the human spirit.
My therapeutic approach is focused not only on identifying your challenges and goals but also building upon your existing strengths. Your therapy will be tailored to your own needs, experiences, and personal style. I will collaborate with you in order to develop a therapeutic plan that helps you move forward towards your goals. Through the development of self-awareness, challenging negative thinking, and nurturing positive relationships with self and others, I believe that with support, each individual has the innate capacity to improve their life.
My therapeutic approach is client-centered, integrative, and evidence-based. I bring a sense of humour, curiosity and an open mind to sessions. I work with adults and youth in individual therapy using various strategies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, and more. I also offer Emotion Focused Family Therapy sessions which offer parents and caregivers evidence-based strategies to manage mental health and behavioural challenges in youth and develop their confidence as parents.
I would be honoured to support you in your own journey.
