Your Path to Healing
Trauma can constantly affect our lives, making daily tasks and relationships challenging. It can make us feel isolated and stuck in negative patterns. While support from loved ones is important, they might not fully understand the impact of our past experiences. This is where a mental health professional specializing in trauma can help, offering guidance towards healing and recovery.

Is Counselling the right path?
Counselling can be very effective. Success requires commitment and time, but the relationship with your social worker is crucial. They'll work with you through tough experiences and memories. The connection and understanding you feel with your social worker is often more important than their specific method or background. With the right fit, counselling can help change how you think and feel, improving your overall well-being.
What are the next steps?
Your journey begins by booking an initial 30 minute Zoom call with me to answer your questions and see if we're the right fit. In our initial session, we will spend time completing a holistic, psychosocial assessment. This assessment will give me a comprehensive understanding of the various facets of your life that might be influencing your overall daily functioning. Together, we'll delve into the heart of what has brought you to seek counselling and envision the changes you aspire to achieve. By understanding the unique ways you interpret and react to the world, we can better tailor our approach to shape your emotions and actions positively. As we wrap up our initial session, we'll chart out the best course of action for your onward journey.
How many sessions will it take?
Everyone's healing process is different. Your past experiences, like previous therapy or self-help, can affect our session frequency and length. Some people prefer bi-weekly sessions, others need longer or more frequent meetings. The key is finding a schedule that works best for you to get the most out of therapy.
