SMART Recovery - Kamloops Addictions Clinic -
I believe it is common for us to feel overwhelmed, isolated, anxious, fearful, or stuck in our thoughts, feelings, or behaviours. And when this happens, we become disoriented and can’t seem to find the right direction. This affects our efforts to establish and sustain healthy relationships with ourselves and others. An empathetic and accepting space fosters meaningful self-discovery, emotional processing, and personal growth, equipping us with the tools to navigate life's challenges.
Unconditional positive regard for all individuals, relationship building, and putting the client at the centre of the work are the most important pieces to an effective counselling experience. I strive to cultivate therapeutic relationships that are warm, inviting, and genuine, so you can be your authentic self, or discover it.
As a counsellor, I am grounded in the certainty that feelings of safety and connection serve as the cornerstones of healing. I know first-hand how counselling can help us get unstuck and create the change we want to make life easier. My personal and professional experiences have sparked my desire to support others who may be struggling.
Youth Wellness Therapy is dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals seeking counseling and therapy services. Our mission is to empower and guide our clients towards mental and emotional well-being. We believe in the importance of personalized care and strive to create a warm and inclusive space for everyone who walks through our doors.
