Approaches to Psychotherapy:
My counseling style involves developing mindfulness and resilience to improve mental health outcomes; however, I adapt my approach to meet my client's needs. My process always begins with establishing a trusting relationship where my client feels comfortable outlining the problem. Together, we gather relevant information, including personal history and coping strategies, develop an explanation for the issue, set clear goals, and collaborate on an effective intervention.
I am trained/experienced in the following:
Acceptance and Commitment Psychotherapy (ACT), an approach that involves acceptance of one’s experience and clarifying values in order to push through difficult experiences.
Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), an approach useful in navigating intense and uncomfortable emotions, improving distress tolerance, and skill building for interpersonal effectiveness.
Suicide first Aid (ASIST)
Clinical Experience:
I have professional experience counselling for mood and anxiety disorders, stress, personality disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, life transitions, and interpersonal relationships.
I am supervised by a seasoned RP regularly throughout my practice to ensure I am practicing to the best of my ability.
