Counselling for Adults
​and Youth

Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can grow in how we respond to certain situations. We all develop coping strategies to help us get through distressing times, and you may be in a place where you want to shift these old strategies and work towards new pathways.​​ I am an EMDR and DBT-trained counsellor, and also often work alongside folks dealing with OCD, Trauma, Anxiety and Mood Disorders.
