Hello and welcome to You Wellness,

 

I know choosing a counsellor is a big decision and so I want to support you in your search by explaining a bit about myself and my practice! 

 

Here is a little about me; I have been counselling for six years and I am a Registered Professional Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) with the Association of Cooperative Counselling Therapists of Canada (member #2221). 

 

My specialties include:

  • Solution-focused brief therapy 

  • Positive psychology

  • Grief Recovery Method

  • Certified Meditation Teacher

  • Gottman couples' therapy

 

You might be wondering what this looks like in therapy and is right for you? 

 

Solution-focused therapy is collaborative, we will work together focusing on solution development it is results-driven and helps you to move forward towards the changes you would like to see in your life. This goal-focused and future-oriented therapy is also evidence-based, positive, motivating, hope fostering and sustainable. 

 

Positive psychology includes science-based exercises that explore your strengths, values, and self-compassion. This provides you with tools to navigate your challenges to enhance self-awareness and increase well-being. 

​

In my practice I focus on actionable tools and techniques ranging from emotional awareness techniques, breathwork, grounding and communication skills. These work on a range of challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and much more. 

 

A large part of the therapeutic process depends on the connection between us, it is key that we are the right fit. So, if my approach resonates with you and you would like to connect, you can contact me in several ways:
