“I believe that every individual has a unique story that has led to their current moment." 

My job is to hear and understand this experience, while providing well informed feedback and guidance for change. I often say to my clients that their job is help keep me balanced because if I all I did as a therapist was push them for change, they would feel misunderstood and on the other hand if all I did was validate their experience, they would feel like we aren’t getting anywhere.  The ironic thing is, this balance looks different for everyone. I work from the perspective that because each individual comes from a different set of experiences, counselling needs to be flexible and integrative to meet these needs. I wanted to create a team of highly trained, competent, and compassionate therapists, who also see the value of looking at each individual as needing something different from the process.
