About Me
MA, RP, CCC
At times, our thoughts and emotions can become overwhelming without applying the proper skills. Exploring narratives that stem from childhood experiences can help gain clarity on present and future projections. Together we will work on unfolding the complexities that lie beneath the surface while highlighting your strengths that have guided you thus far in life.
In my practice, I foster empathy and a safe place for you to share your experiences without judgement. Disclosing sensitive and painful experiences can be a difficult process if barriers are present in the therapeutic relationship. I promote transparency in order to build a relationship with mutual trust and respect.
Each person has a story with unique life experiences, I draw from various therapeutic approaches in order to target your needs and presenting issues. Therapeutic approaches that I incorporate into my practice are EFT, ACT, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
Prior to this experience, I completed my practicum in private practice. At the centre, I administered assessments and provided therapy to adults and couples. Areas that I focused on were anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship issues, family relationships, trauma, and work and life balance.
