Counselling
I
bring a wealth of experience to my work with individuals and groups
that
I have gathered from working in the counselling field since 1979.
What remains constant is that all of us walk
around with varying degrees of
fear, hurt and anger inside our heads and our hearts. Some of us carry
old pain,
and some are currently coping with difficult and challenging situations.
We look for solutions; and I have witnessed
many counselling "solutions" and "trends” come and go. My
experience has shown me that what helps with inner
turmoil, depression or confusion is taking the time from busy schedules
to sit
with a counsellor. Talking and reflecting in a non-judgmental
environment about
the life one is really living and the changes one
needs to make is often the first step.
I provide a supportive, safe and comfortable setting in which you can
explore the options and alternatives that are best for you. Change
is possible.
Coaching
-In office or On Line
Coaching
is particularly helpful for those who want to attain specific goals and
have support to follow through on their action plans. This approach can
be beneficial for both youth and adults.
Workshops/Groups
Workshops,
groups, presentations and professional development can be designed
specifically for your business, agency, school parenting committee,
etc.
Diversity
Over
the many years of working in the helping professions, I have had the
opportunity
to work with a wide variety of individuals; individuals that were
different in
some ways from me. My
experience
with diversity includes: culture, faith/religion, physical challenges,
sexual
orientation, socio/economic, gender and age.
Theoretical
Models
Life
shows us that individuals, couples and families will all experience
some degree
of turmoil, stress or crisis at some point in time.
I also know change is always possible and
there are solutions to
problems. I very much believe individuals, couples and families can
and do change.
The theoretical models I work from include
Choice Theory/Reality Therapy;
Narrative Therapy; Solution Focused.
