Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or feeling lost which affects your day-to-day? When we are unsatisfied and frustrated by expectations, getting through our days can be challenging with the constant pondering of how our life could be better. I believe everyone should have a life worth living which is why I offer counselling services for clients living with anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, relationship issues, life transitions, body image and chronic dieting issues, and career and academic success. I start by understanding not only what brings you to therapy, but who you are as a person.

The goal for my clients is to help them understand and apply solutions that the field of psychology can offer. My approach is rooted in cognitive behavior therapy, with the flexibility of utilizing other approaches tailored to clients' needs or the specificity of the problem. An important element of therapy is positive psychology, encompassing personal growth and human development. Combined, these therapeutic orientations help clients develop thoughts and actions to help manage difficult situations or challenges they are facing. Importantly I also help clients gain new skills to feel better about themselves and the decisions they make in life.

I believe in the human being and his or her capacity to re-build. I find that there is nothing more important than a willingness to develop compassion for oneself and one's situation. For me, the therapy is a place to reconnect with emotions, and begin a very important journey within the supportive therapeutic relationship.

Coping with life challenges such as grief, relationship troubles, anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflict, or simply a general lack of well-being, can feel overwhelming for all of us.

I then encourage those I work with to build on their inner strengths, explore adaptive strategies,integrate psycho spiritual resources and pursue their potential for personal growth.
