Accepting New Clients- I am a Registered Psychologist and a trained EMDR therapist specializing in working with adults and couples. I am a compassionate and authentic individual that offers unconditional positive regards and genuine empathy. As a therapist, I am very person-centered, empathetic and nurturing. I use techniques and strategies from the Advanced Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, Gottman Couples Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Mindfulness to best support clients' personal needs.
Change and growth occurs constantly throughout our life span. Consequently, I work with clients to recognize positive changes, build resilience, and explore their inner strength. I strive to provide clients with a trusting, caring, understanding and supportive environment, which allow clients to explore their healing journey.
I believe strongly in the importance of fit between a counsellor and client, as such I offer free 15 minutes consultations to discuss your needs. Counselling is a collaborative process that is tailored to meet individuals needs. I will work closely with you, ensuring you feel heard and help you to explore your full potential to achieve well being.
