How I Work
If you are the type of person who has paved their own way without asking for much help, I get it. However beneath that exterior strength you may feel lost and isolated, yearning for a chance to finally let someone in. You are not alone! By tapping into the insight and strengths you already possess, we will work towards becoming less dismissive of these feelings and help you begin to understand yourself better than before. I know this can be challenging and anxiety-provoking. Because, let’s be real, change is never easy. But let me tell you, it’s worth it.
I use a client-centered, strengths-based and collaborative approach to help you navigate life at your speed. Here you will be safe, listened to, valued, respected, and understood. We will explore different solutions to best meet your needs at all levels – individual, couple, family, professional, community. I am passionate about helping you find motivation and confidence in yourself. Let’s break those unhealthy behaviors and thought patterns so we can identify your goals to live a more meaningful and value-driven life!
What Sets Me Apart As a Therapist?
Deep down, I am all about having a good time and I love to have things to look forward to. I enjoy bringing that same energy into therapy. I have been described as a great listener, relatable, open-minded, and easy to talk to. I believe that I bring an atmosphere that is always going to be attentive to your needs and thinking alongside you. I have been told that I make couples and families feel safe and understood without taking sides.
My personal interests are playing and watching hockey (Go Wild!), watching football (SKOL!), spending time with my dog, playing video games, exercising, and watching suspenseful shows and movies! I am always open to talk about your interests as well without losing sight of your goals and areas of importance. I’m humbled by the opportunity to learn more about you!
