My Approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting and embracing life’s challenges, rather than attempting to eliminate difficult feelings.
Person-Centered Therapy
Person-centered therapy uses a non-authoritative approach that allows clients to take more of a lead in discussions so that, in the process, they will discover their own solutions.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a skill-based treatment that focuses on the interconnection of one’s thoughts, behaviours, and emotional experiences.
Dialectical Behavioural Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a skill-based treatment that values both self-acceptance and change. The therapist validates the client’s experiences while teaching mindfulness, relationship, communication skills, and techniques to manage overwhelming emotions.
Eclectic/Integrative Therapy
Eclectic therapy is an open, integrative form of psychotherapy that adapts to the unique needs of each specific client, depending on the problem, the treatment goals, and the person’s expectations and motivation.
Humanistic Therapy
Through mindful self-awareness and thoughtful action, clients connect with their innate potential to choose and maintain healthy relationships and meaningful life experiences.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness-informed therapy integrates present moment awareness as a tool that allows people to disengage from mental preoccupations and difficult emotions.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing is person-centered counselling style that utilizes collaborative conversation with a focus on the client’s own goals and motivations, typically specific to substance misuse or other behavioural challenges.
