My philosophy as a therapist is to provide support in a warm and non-judgmental environment. I work in a collaborative way to formulate goals, problem solve and identify coping skills. I am an insight oriented therapist who is passionate about helping people understand what they feel and why they feel it. I have an anti-oppressive framework so I understand how various societal structures can impact mental health and well-being. I am LGBTQ2S positive.
I have an integrated approach drawing upon different skills and knowledge depending on the situation and the needs of my clients. My approaches include:
- Client centered
- Trauma informed
- Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD (CPT)
- Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
- Emotionally Focused Therapy for individuals (EFT)
- Mindfulness
- Psychodynamic
- Motivational Interviewing (MI)
