I have held a counselling position in a variety of settings such as non-for profit, government agency, addiction residential facility, school settings, women’s shelter, and private practice. I have provided counselling services to individuals, couples, families, and groups. I also have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have treated clinical problems including - but not limited to - anxiety, depression, trauma, school refusal, substance abuse, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, sexual abuse, autism, ADHD, eating disorders, oppositional-defiant disorder, personality disorders, and attachment disorders. I also have experience with parent-child relationship problems, academic failure, addiction to technology, relationship issues, and with individuals who identify within the LGBTQ2+ community.
I have provided counselling interventions such as cognitive-behaviour therapy, solution focused therapy, narrative therapy, IFS, dyadic developmental therapy, motivational interviewing, play therapy, and trauma-informed practices. I often use techniques such as cognitive restructuring, timelines, empty chair, letter writing, genograms, psychoeducation, systematic desensitization, guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation, grounding exercises, mindfulness activities, distress tolerance training, role playing, scaling, and the miracle question.
