My Process
Consultation Call
Our relationship starts off with a free 15-minute consultation call. This gives me an opportunity to understand some of the challenges you’re encountering and tell you about some of my experience to see if there is a good fit.
Please use the contact form below to set up our initial consultation call.
Initial Sessions
Our initial sessions are all about getting comfortable with each other.
This is especially important with children as it is often their first experience with therapy. We play games and keep the conversation light as we create a safe space to communicate.
Subsequent Sessions
After our initial sessions, when I have a fuller understanding of the individual/family, I typically draw on several therapeutic approaches as we continue our weekly/biweekly sessions.
I tailor each treatment to the needs of each person using a client-centred approach.
