Psychotherapy with me can be many different things. Most importantly, is learning first about the client's history, current issues, and ideas about the future so that we can discover priorities to work on together. I am supportive and caring in my relationships with clients and I see my role as a facilitator who helps them to make the improvements they'd like to see in their daily lives. Sometimes, we will focus on a specific problem, such as a habit that needs changing. Other times, a client needs help to build confidence or communicate better in their close relationships. I like to say that "For every problem, we can find a solution, or at least improve how we feel about it!"

As a Psychotherapist, psychotherapy is my way of practice. Psychotherapy can help you become aware of automatic ways of thinking that are inaccurate or harmful (for example, having a low opinion of their abilities) and then question those thoughts, understand how the thoughts affect their emotions and behaviour, and change self-defeating behaviour patterns. It helps to identify ways to cope with stress and develop problem-solving strategies. It work at examine interactions with others and teach social and communication skills. As well, apply mindfulness and relaxation techniques, such as meditation and breathing exercises.
