I enjoy working with people one on one, in couples and families toward restoring personal well being and healthy relationships. Through play-based therapy, I am able to assist children to understand their emotions, how to better communicate their feelings and thoughts with their parents or caregivers, and develop effective coping skills to manage behaviours.In a confidential and safe environment, couple therapy solutions include help with conflict resolution and communication skills, all part of necessary work in restoring and rebuilding relationship foundations.
Individual, couple and family counselling, to address stress management, anxiety and depression, conflict, relationship breakdown, life transitions and support for caregivers. Models used include Cognitive Behavioural and Narrative Therapies, Solution Focussed Therapy.
Play-based therapy for children addressing anxiety, depression, and adjustment to separation/divorce. Effective strategies are provided for those dealing with chronic pain. I can direct people to find solutions via useful resources online or in the community.
