Some of the reasons why clients seek out counselling:
- Social and professional isolation
- Personal identity confusion or loss
- Low self-esteem
- Feeling challenged and hopeless about yourself, your spouse, your children, or other family members in achieving academic, career, or life goals
- Anxiety or panic attacks
- Difficulty in falling asleep or sleeping too much
- Constant worry about your current and future life
- Constant worry about families, friends, and others
- Difficulty in making decisions
- Loss of trust in yourself and others

Youth Counselling
Whether it is school anxiety or other areas in life, I work from a family approach in helping children and youth overcome their problems. I will incorporate the use of art, mindfulness and provide practical skills that can be used at home or at school. I will ask family members to join session towards that end of each session and follow up with phone calls to monitor progress.
I tailor my approach to fit a youth’s unique needs and goals.
It is easy to feel overwhelmed with school transitions (elementary to high school) and/or life transitions (e.g. puberty). Counselling can be a safe place to talk about life’s stresses and gain a fresh perspective
