Resume
As a trained Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Canadian Certified Counsellor I have the experience and knowledge necessary to help you achieve your desired personal outcomes.
My qualifications indicate that I’m well suited for working with you to address a wide range of personal and emotional issues:
—Counseling Individuals (Age 18+)
—Counseling for Counselors and Clergy
—Working with people who identify as having Misophonia, a sound sensitivity condition from which I also suffer; and
—Counseling those who are searching for spiritual meaning in their lives and wish to move beyond mere existence in a chaotic universe.
I strongly believe in the Carl Rogers Person-Centered Approach to Counseling and believe that by fully attending to the Client’s presence, a foundation of rapport and respect can be built upon which clinical goals can be pursued. I will walk alongside you as you struggle with finding meaning in life.
