Counselling that is covered by your university extended health plan is across the street from University of Waterloo campus.
In therapy, we continue your stepwise progression at our initial appointment. There, I listen to your needs and concerns, we discuss strategy, set a session-by-session agenda, and monitor our progress.
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT. CBT is the gold-standard in terms of a robust evidence-base for effectiveness, and is the treatment-of-choice of the medical community for a wide range of issues.
CBT is based on the understanding that our emotions are connected to our situation, thoughts, actions, and even our physical sensations. So, when we make changes to one area of life, it affects the rest.
My goal is to work with you to introduce and practice the tools and techniques that improve your mood in stressful situations.
Within a few appointments I anticipate that you will see results.
Thank you for contacting me.
I will get back to you as soon as possible.
