An integrative practice helping you understand yourself more deeply. I help you move forward with clarity, self-compassion and confidence.
With holistic wellness ingrained in everything I do, I always begin by understanding the person. Therapeutic counselling, coaching, and physical wellbeing are not treated as separate disciplines, but they can be drawn upon as complementary approaches, according to your needs.
Counselling can help you make sense of the past and identify any patterns that shape you today. Coaching has a greater focus on future goals and explores ways to help you move forward; while physical wellbeing supports the body that carries you through both. Every person's journey is different - and so is every approach.
The three often affect one another, too. Someone experiencing depression, for example, may find their motivation to move dips right along with it.
An integrative approach may mean you're not juggling three different practitioners for three different parts of your life.
