MY APPROACH
Using the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for insight and growth, I take an integrationist approach to counselling. This means that I bring tools and perspectives from a number of different therapeutic models into each counselling relationship based on the needs and goals of the specific client. Regardless of the particular modality being brought into the session, my focus is always on the client.
