Tides Center For Counselling & Health
I’m a student therapist passionate about helping individuals uncover their strengths and wisdom through a supportive, empowering approach. By focusing on what’s already within you, my goal is to help you feel confident and capable in overcoming challenges. I use a blend of person-centered and solution-focused approaches, ensuring that your needs and goals are at the forefront of our work together. I’m also deeply interested in Emotion-Focused Therapy, which helps people connect with and understand their emotions meaningfully.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a teacher, which fueled my passion for working with children and families. I’ve seen firsthand how important it is to build strong, supportive relationships to help children thrive emotionally, socially, and academically. This experience has influenced my therapy approach, especially in fostering emotional development, communication, and connection. While I have a special place in my heart for children and families, I enjoy connecting with individuals of all ages and life stages.
Growing up in a small town, I learned early on the value of community. Throughout my life, I’ve found that strong relationships are essential for navigating both the highs and lows. This belief extends to my work as a therapist, where I view the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of therapy. I strive to create authentic, genuine connections that foster a safe, trusting environment for clients to open up and grow.
These experiences shape my therapeutic style, and I aim to create a warm, welcoming space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey of growth and healing!
