- Improve relationships: Through counselling, you can learn to communicate more effectively, understand your emotional triggers, and build healthier connections with others.
- Navigate life transitions: It provides support for major life changes such as divorce, job loss, moving, or health diagnoses.
- Gain self-awareness: You can explore your own feelings, develop personal insights, and better understand yourself, leading to a more satisfying and resourceful life.
- Address specific problems: Counselling is effective for dealing with specific issues like depression, anxiety, self-esteem, or trauma.
- Gain a fresh perspective: A counsellor can help you reframe negative thinking and uncover new possibilities and solutions that you may not have seen on your own.
Counselling provides a supportive, collaborative space to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a way that honours your pace and perspective. Our counsellor takes a person-centred approach, integrating ACT, CBT, narrative therapy, and DBT-informed skills to help clients understand the patterns influencing their inner world and develop strategies that can promote emotional balance, clarity and resilience. Our counsellor’s background in education informs the way she works - attentively, steadily, and responsively to each client’s unique needs and context.
People often seek counselling while navigating anxiety, stress, low mood, identity, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, or relationship difficulties. Our counsellor offers a calm, evidence-informed presence; helps you slow down and make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface; and supports you in moving toward greater clarity, self-compassion, and well-being, all while honouring your readiness, strengths, and lived experience.
Therapeutic Approaches:
- Person-Centred Approach: Cultivating an environment rooted in empathy, collaboration, and respect, where clients are seen as the experts of their own experiences.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Supporting clients in developing psychological flexibility, clarifying values, and responding adaptively to difficult internal experiences.
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT-Informed): Helping clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns that contribute to anxiety, stress, or self-criticism.
- Narrative Therapy: Exploring and reshaping the stories that influence identity, self-perception, and relationships to create more grounded, empowering narratives.
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT-Informed Skills): Strengthening emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness.
