The Counselling Process

Counselling is an active and collaborative process that can create lasting change in your life. My counselling integrates a variety of approaches and tools in order to create a dynamic therapeutic experience that best fits your needs. Given the unique needs of each client, we will shape the therapeutic process together, honouring your role as expert in your own life and experiences.

If you would like to explore if we’re a good therapeutic fit, please book a free 20 minute phone consultation to get started. We will use this time to connect, talk about what brings you to counselling, and discuss any questions or concerns you have.
