PROFESSIONAL
I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, and also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with rigorous counselling training and experience.
How can a relationship go from feeling like a honeymoon to walking on eggshells? Sometimes life’s challenges help you grow closer, but sometimes it can feel like they are driving you apart. Couples therapy can help you get out of the downward spiral and start to fight together, instead of fighting each other.
Behavioral addictions (such as sex, pornography, gambling, internet and video game addictions) can easily start to take over your life. Before you know it, you may have lost more than you ever thought you could lose, including friends and family. If you have been caught up in an addiction, I can help you learn to kick the habit and start to restore your life to the way you want it to be.
Only people who have experienced deep depression really understand what it feels like. It isn’t something you can just think your way out of, and motivation can be incredibly hard to find. With some help, you can learn to respond to your depression in a way that works for you. and helps you get your life back on track.
Is fear or anxiety holding you back from things that are important to you? Anxiety can be an isolating experience, but together we can find ways you can manage anxiety and still live your life on your terms.

What is counselling?
In a nutshell, counselling is a process where you can get everything out of your head, sift through it with someone, and then put it back together in a way that works for you. This process can help you clarify what is important to you, and a professional can provide some different perspectives or ideas that can help make your life more manageable.
Counselling is not about me telling you what to do. You can use the benefit of my professional knowledge and experience to take away what you need from each session, but I am here to support you in what’s important to you.
