*Serving Clients in Ontario*

You are unique individual who is resilient, intelligent, and passionate about life. You are working towards your goals but are facing challenges that continue to accumulate, leaving you feeling overwhelmed. This might be affecting both your relationships with others and with yourself. You may feel you are losing control and things are not going as planned.

I have also been there, and I’ve found a way to move forward to overcome these challenges.  As your therapist, I will be here to guide you and provide therapy so you can make progress.

Here is the framework that we will be working from:

  1. Understand who you are and the changes you would like to make in your life.

  2. Create a plan and set goals.

  3. Work as a team to address the issue at hand.

  4. Learn skills that will be useful while on this journey and in your life.

  5. Problem solve any obstacles to get back on track.

  6. Maintain and practice the skills that you have acquired

As you know, life isn't always easy; there will be trials and tribulations. This is your journey, and I will be there with you as you navigate these challenges and assist you to reach your goals.
