What do you love most about your job?
I love working person to person giving clients tools to become in charge of their lives, their stress, or their anxiety etc. rather than "it" being in charge of them. I work with my clients on building self love, self worth and finding freedom from pain or experience that is causing them to miss out on having a fulfilled and happy life in the present. Results is what I love to see and I will do my best to help you get them!
What inspired you to start your own business?
Being in recovery for 12 years before I started my business in 2012 showed me that we all have an opportunity to use our negative experiences for positive growth and that can give us joy and freedom from the wreckage of the past. Not everything is easy, or lovely, but with the right guidance you can heal and grow in a better direction. I learned to create the life I want for me and that is a gift I really enjoy sharing with my clients.
Why should our clients choose you?
I offer lots of flexibility for my clients with schedules and session structure. We will look at what your expectations are and work towards your goals. I feel that the "session time" is the learning or venting time but what happens between sessions is the really important time. I offer between session support to all my clients and I promise to do my best on being part of you support team when you need it, not just in the session.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Online counselling has been a wonderful thing. No more stress getting to and from appointments on time, battling traffic, parking, or even waiting rooms. Having the time to sit in your own space be it at home, in your car or in a park can give you time to prepare emotionally for your session. The best part is after the session where you can sit and reflect, take notes or just breathe for a few moments to let the experience process. Try it! You'll love it i'm sure!
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
During the pandemic I have had several (most actually) of my clients end up testing positive and not knowing until just before or after their appointment. Going to online only really has protected me and all of my clients, especially the elderly or more vulnerable folks. Online sessions gives us the freedom to not worry, second guess or be at an unnecessary risk. Please continue to stay safe and healthy!
