Beginning therapy with Person-Centred Counselling is like embarking on a personal journey where you are in the driver’s seat, steering toward self-discovery and growth. As your therapist, I sit beside you, offering support, encouragement, and a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions. Rather than directing your path, I help you build confidence in your ability to make decisions, trust yourself, and move forward in a way that feels right for you. Together, we process past experiences, which helps you feel less stuck or overwhelmed. Over time, this journey fosters personal growth, resilience, and a greater understanding of yourself.
I am a registered clinical counsellor (#19428) trained in Person-Centred Counselling to support individuals in navigating life’s challenges and building self-awareness.
In our sessions, I provide a compassionate and accepting environment where you can express yourself freely. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, grief, or life transitions, Person-Centred Counselling offers a space where your experiences are heard and validated. You are the expert in your own life, and together, we work to strengthen your ability to trust yourself and make choices that align with your values.
At Ease Counseling, I offer in-person and online Person-Centred Counselling sessions. I create a safe and supportive space where you can start your healing journey.
Person-Centred Counselling is a humanistic therapy focused on helping individuals tap into their natural ability for self-healing and personal growth. Rooted in the work of psychologist Carl Rogers, this approach is based on the belief that, with the right support, individuals can align their ideal selves with their experiences. By fostering a compassionate and non-judgmental space, Person-Centred Counselling empowers individuals to freely explore their thoughts and emotions, promoting self-awareness, resilience, and meaningful change.
Person-Centred Counselling is beneficial for individuals facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. It is also helpful for those seeking personal growth and self-exploration.
The length of therapy varies from person to person. Some individuals find a few sessions helpful, while others prefer longer-term therapy to continue exploring their thoughts, emotions, and personal development. You determine how many sessions are right for you, and I can support you with this decision.
Unlike structured therapies, this approach is flexible and client-led. Rather than following a rigid framework, therapy unfolds naturally based on your unique needs and goals.
