Founder, Continued Healing Counselling Therapy | Registered Counselling Therapist-Candidate | Canadian Certified Counsellor
Approach
I pull from a plethora of therapeutic modalities to deliver an integrative approach that considers the whole person. I am intentional in getting to know the unique qualities of each individual and strive to support movement towards collaboratively determined therapeutic intentions. I take inspiration from therapeutic approaches rooted in solution-focused therapy, emotion-focused therapy, body-centered therapy, parts work, and mindfulness. Most importantly, I acknowledge the vulnerability it takes just to show up and I come prepared to hold space for whatever we come in contact with.
Journey
My path towards the counselling therapy profession was nonlinear and truly materialized after my own personal challenges led me to experience the deeply meaningful and life changing impacts of counselling therapy. I always knew I enjoyed connecting with people and had the privilege of working with individuals in a variety of settings as a recreation therapy professional for years. Once I understood the profound effects that counselling therapy could offer, I found myself called to branch out and explore what else was possible. It was the unique and unexpected culmination of both my personal and professional experiences that guided my pursuits and supported my transition into this profession.
