My Approach

My therapeutic approach is integrative and tailored to the needs of the client. I do, however, tend to use solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and positive psychology when working with my clients.

My core beliefs start with my commitment to the best interest of my clients and helping clients to overcome challenges and to grow as a person.
