Counsellor Directory

This innovative membership service serves to promote business information about your counselling practice, specialized services and skills as well as the ability to upload a profile picture and business logo. With futurist trends heading towards a generation that seeks information online as well as a specific set of skills, knowledge and experience, the CPCA believes this directory will provide a competitive edge for marketing our member's counselling services across Canada to the public, insurance providers, EAP contractors and government for verification of your legitimacy. All members who are in "good standing" will be approved to list their contact information in the directory on an annual basis. It allows our members to login to their directory listing once it has been approved and make any changes to their contact information.

Description

I am a Registered Professional Counsellor dedicated to supporting a diverse range of women and men across all ages as they navigate challenges related to mental health, relationships, and personal purpose. I provide individual counselling for concerns such as relational difficulties, anxiety, depression, grief, identity development, trauma, and spiritual formation. I also offer relationship counselling for individuals and couples who are preparing for a committed partnership or marriage, as well as those seeking guidance in their current relationship. In addition, I facilitate women’s groups that offer a safe and supportive environment to explore identity, meaning, and purpose. This is supported by my MA in Leadership.

Each client brings very unique issues to the sessions, so I utilize a variety of therapies depending on the client's needs. These include CBT, Solution-Focused therapy, Talk therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, Client-centered, Existential, Gestalt therapy, Interpersonal therapy, couples therapy, Internal Family Systems, Prayer/Spiritual counselling, and Exposure therapy. I am an Art practitioner, so I utilize visual arts, movement, and music in my counselling style.
