Individual counselling

Counselling provides a safe space and opportunity to explore relationships, feelings, behavior and thoughts that worry you and cause difficulty in your life. It also helps you to become more aware of your needs as an individual and to uncover what really matters to you. We will work together towards the goals that are most important to you, explore strategies and tools for coping and focus on actions that enrich your life.

What to expect

Your first appointment will be an intake appointment where we will discuss how counselling works and begin to explore why you’re here and your goals for counselling. Some people may have specific goals they want to achieve in working with a counsellor, while others may simply want a supportive space to talk about their experience and the thoughts and feelings that are coming up for them. There is no right or wrong.

Following your intake appointment, we’ll set up regular sessions in a way that works for you. Both in-person and video sessions are available. Counselling services are available in both English and French, to Ontario and Quebec residents. Depending on your preferences, I can also provide you with follow-up exercises and resources in between appointments, to build on the skills we are exploring in our sessions.

Payment options

Insurance

Most private health insurance providers cover the services I provide as a Registered Social Worker. I encourage you to contact your insurance company to ask them if they cover the services of a Registered Social Worker and how much coverage they provide.
