Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the services I provide.

Whether the help is for yourself, your child, your family or your relationship, I acknowledge the incredibly brave step you are taking right now reaching out for help.

My priority is to build a trust and safe relationship while providing a nurturing, compassionate and non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe, be seen, heard and understood.

I provide counselling to individuals of all ages, families, and couples to help them address a variety of mental health concerns.

My approach comes from a holistic perspective based on the Bio-Psycho-Social Model, where the biological, psychological, and social factors exist along a continuum of a natural system. I pay attention to their complex interactions to understand health and well-being. Because one size does not fit all, I tailor therapy according to each client’s needs, goals and preferences, based on an integrative approach using multiple evidence-based modalities.

Welcome and Thank you for visiting my profile.

I have broad experience working with children, youth and adults providing individual, family and couples therapy.

I believe that creating a warm and trusting space where you can feel seen, heard, and validated is an essential component to help you explore your inner world and embrace your strengths and resilience to achieve your goals.

Creo que proporcionar un ambiente cálido y de confianza donde puedes sentirte comprendido, escuchado y validado es un componente esencial para ayudarte a explorar tu mundo interior y comprender tus fortalezas y resiliencia para alcanzar tus metas.

Counselling is a collaborative process where the counsellor and the client work together to develop perspective and understanding. I tailor therapy according to each client’s needs, goals, and preferences, based on an integrative approach using multiple evidence-based modalities.

Counselling es un proceso colaborativo donde el counsellor y el cliente trabajan conjuntamente para desarrollar perspectiva y comprensión. Adapto la terapia según las necesidades de mi cliente, sus metas y preferencias, basado un enfoque integrativo usando múltiples modalidades de evidencia científica.

I acknowledge that the quality of our relationships and interactions with others can deeply impact our lives and our well-being throughout life. I tend to integrate attachment-based perspectives to obtain an overall sense of the unique context of each client.

Reconozco que la calidad de nuestras relaciones e interacciones con los demás puede impactar profundamente nuestras vidas y nuestro estado de bienestar. Por ello, tiendo a incorporar la perspectiva de la teoría de apego para obtener un sentido global sobre el contexto único de cada cliente.

My work focuses on building a safe relationship while providing a nurturing, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment.

Mi trabajo se centra en construir una relación de confianza proporcionando un ambiente de cuidado, de comprensión y sin juicios.
