Practice information:

I opened Oasis Creative Counselling with the goal of offering people a safe and welcoming environment where they can work toward the change they desire. I offer counselling and art therapy services for teens, preteens, and adults struggling with various issues, including but not limited to:

• Eating disorders/disordered eating
• Substance abuse
• Addictive and/or compulsive behaviors
• Self-harm
• Issues related to sexuality, sexual orientation, and/or gender identity
• Negative body image
• Low self-esteem and/or self-criticism
• Trauma
• Anxiety
• Depression

One unique thing about working with me is that you'll have the opportunity to participate in counselling, art therapy, or both. Counselling involves healing through primarily verbal processes (i.e., talking, writing), whereas art therapy is a metaverbal modality of treatment that involves various forms of expression (i.e., drawing, painting, sculpture, collage). I operate from a person-centered model, which means that I believe it's vital for me to empathize with your experiences without judgment or criticism.

I hope that Oasis Creative Counselling can be a peaceful place of refuge from whatever difficulties you may be facing in your everyday life.
