I am a father, a husband, a son, a brother and a counsellor. I am also an introvert and balance my work with people by spending free time camping, cooking, gaming and watching movies. I am interested in hearing what interests and areas of life bring you satisfaction and happiness.
In my counselling I work from a person-centered approach, as well as drawing from solution-focused and trauma-informed approaches. This means that I value you, your strengths and your needs above anything else. It also means that your own unique values, beliefs and perspectives will guide our work together.
Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary
