Do you work with children/teens?

Yes, I do work with adolescents. I’m passionate about families, and children are very much a part of families. Kids enjoy their sessions;  I adjust my listening and communication skills to support their needs.

What happens in the first session?

It’s the time to share what is taking place in your life that has brought you to counselling. It is an opportunity for us to build a connection, and for you to ask any questions. If you have a feeling that something is not right in your life, and you don’t know what it is, don’t let that stop you from seeking help. My skills as a counsellor can help you identify this.
