Qualifications and BackgroundI have been in the education and social wellness field for almost 20 years. I specialize in counselling individuals to live purposeful joy filled lives by focusing on Mental and Emotional work first. As Alfred Adler suggested, “first we think, then we feel, and then we act”. I specialize in helping individuals navigate through issues related to stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions. I have a special interest in working with couples and relationship issues. I also provide Parent Education Training. My approach supports client competencies (strengths) and solution based therapy. I also have training in Art and Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and TEAM-CBT approaches. With sensitivity and compassion, I work with each client to help them build solutions to their unique struggles and issues.
