What is counselling?

Counselling is a safe and confidential space where you can discuss concerns, fears, and problems with someone who is trained to explore those topics ethically and without judgement. Together, we will work towards helping you understand yourself better and empower you to make changes so you can live a more authentic and balanced life. 
 
As an integrative counsellor, my approach and understanding is that one size does not fit all when it comes to therapy. During our time together, I will draw upon a myriad of counselling and psychological theories/approaches to facilitate in your healing journey for long-lasting change.

During sessions, we will work to build a therapeutic relationship, exploring topics that feel relevant to you. I may guide you through specific exercises that are designed to help with your problem, or we may have more general discussions about how you are feeling. What you choose to talk about will vary depending on what comes up for you in the session. 
It could include:
 
  • your relationships
  • your childhood
  • your feelings, emotions, or thoughts 
  • your behaviour
  • past and present life events
  • situations you find difficult
