Approach to Counselling

My philosophy in counselling is person-centred. I strive to listen to my clients from a place of empathy so they may feel understood. I believe that being understood is essential, especially during difficult times in life. I work to create a safe and caring space for experiences to be shared and emotions to be processed. I understand that life comes with ups and downs and I believe that therapy allows for an exploration of the waves, and provides assistance in reaching calmer water. 

 

I work with clients to figure out the therapeutic tools that will work best for them. Therapeutic models that I commonly borrow from include dialectical behaviour therapy, emotion focused therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, , Gottman methods couple therapy, solution focused brief therapy, narrative therapy and motivational interviewing. By facilitating psychoeducation, clients experience autonomy in their own therapeutic journey.
