New Phase Counselling Therapy
We all need support as we navigate through a new phase in our lives.
Life can be stressful. Sometimes an unexpected event happens and knocks us to our knees or we want a change and we’re unsure what steps to take. It can feel like we have tried everything and nothing will change. Yet, there is hope. There are always options and new possibilities.
It takes courage to ask for help. Getting support and guidance is a sign of strength, wisdom, and self-care.
In therapy, we will identify the stressors and barriers in your life, build on your strengths, explore your emotions, identify resources, and tailor strategies to you so that you are empowered to take the necessary steps to have a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
Types of Sessions
Sessions can be done in-person at my Dartmouth office or virtually.
Evening appointments are available Monday and Tuesday evenings.
Most private health insurance will cover therapy. Check your insurance policy to see if
“counselling therapist” or “registered counsellor” is an approved provider under your coverage.
Direct billing is available for various insurance plans.
Free Consultation
This is a free, 15-minute, Get-To-Know-Each-Other session.
Intake Session
This is our first full session together. I will ask you a lot of questions to better understand all the factors that are affecting your current situation.
Therapy Sessions
These are our on-going sessions. We decide together what we want to do in these sessions.
