Individual
Counselling

Sometimes, life feels too overwhelming to put into words, doesn’t it?

The thoughts race, the feelings build, and it all seems too hard to make sense of. That’s where I can help.

I can help you find the words to express your emotions. I can help you slow those incessant, racing thoughts and make sense of what has happened. Together, we’ll work towards finding successful ways to meet your needs—ways that don’t sabotage the very things you’re trying to create.

When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.

They stop controlling us and sabotaging the life we want to live.

Individual therapy is a safe, supportive space where I help you:

Build self-esteem, self-worth, and self-confidence.

Tame anger by learning assertiveness skills.
