Why pick me as your counsellor?
I am great at developing a rapport with my clients and putting them at ease.
Research suggests that if a therapist responds in an attuned way, the client will have a positive experience, which may encourage them to also express needs outside of the therapy room. I pride myself in responding in an attuned way, and establishing a rapport with my clients which I believe allows me to be an effective counsellor. The therapeutic relationship itself is essential to the success a patient experiences.
This is not a job for me; it's a Passion
You will find that I go above and beyond. If a client is a reader and wants to be pointed in the right direction for a book or article I will send them that as well as videos. I will also help provide worksheets or activities to do in between sessions if they find that helpful. I try to adapt to your way of learning, growing and healing with a holistic approach to therapy and meet your where you are at and what works best for you.
I love working with individuals on grief and loss, depression, anxiety, life goals, stress management, authentic self, self compassion, shame, self-esteem. I especially enjoy working with individuals on the relationships they have with others (dating, situation ships, marriage, cohabitating, identifying and healing patterns, boundaries, anxious or avoidant attachment, friends, parents etc.)
I studied and completed 200hours of supervision couples and family therapy because our: happiness, quality of life, and satisfaction are tied to our primary relationships and quality of our relationships. I absolutely love working with couples. Not many therapists work primarily with couples or have specific training. I have purposely pursued this area of counselling. I believe in what I do and truly want to help couples and families: communicate better, and increase their happiness with each other and overall quality of life.
I am trained in the most effective couples therapy modality: EFT
I am certified in levels 1, 2, 3 in Emotionally Focused Therapy. Research studies have found that 70-75% of couples undergoing EFT successfully move from distress to recovery, and approximately 90% of couples show significant improvements.. Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy is a well-researched form of couples therapy used internationally to help couples achieve more connection, attunement, and satisfaction in their relationships. -Source: Psychology Today
