While it is true that every life has its highs and lows, sometimes the lows are hard to manage and support may be needed to regain strength. I provide counselling for children and adults, both individually and within the context of the family. I work from a variety of theoretical perspectives including but not limited to CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Family Systems. My clients establish their own goals for therapy and I provide support in defining the objectives for meeting those goals. I believe that my clients are the experts on their own lives and I am there to facilitate the changes they desire. I am skilled at completing assessments and treatment recommendations. I provide therapeutic support in the mode best suited for the family, i.e individual work with parent(s) or the children, parenting support and marital support. I have a good understanding of childhood disorders, anxiety and depression, parent child conflict, and adolescent issues. It appears that you are exploring because you know you need support for yourself or your loved one(s). You want a change and this act of searching shows that you have gone beyond thinking about it and are ready to act. Although sometimes it is hard to think of discussing your struggles with a complete stranger, in my experience, the risk is worth it
