In my work with clients, I prize the relationship we share as the vehicle through which treatment and change occurs. Through this relationship, we endeavour for therapy to be a space whereby a collaborative understanding of what has brought them to this point in life may be developed. Indeed, I believe that it is from this place that we may then work to develop a pathway forward to treat what is present, foster and deepen insight, and muster compassion to hold the fullness and uniqueness of each individual with deep appreciation and care.
