I’m Sara, a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling (MPCC-Provisional) at Twin Flame Counselling.

 

I believe that a lot of people don’t always receive the support, care and respect that they need to thrive.  It is my commitment to provide inclusive, compassionate, supportive, non-judgmental care for my clients.

 

I use a person-centred focus where clients set the pace and direction for their treatment.  As a clinical counsellor, I am here to support clients in a self-discovery, empowerment, and achieving goals that are aligned with their personal values.  

 

I also integrate a trauma-informed approach.  This supports all clients in the reality that many of us have experienced at least one traumatic event in our lives.  Together we can discover how past trauma can affect the nervous system, our sense of self, and better understand how it can cause difficulty in a day-to-day functionality and emotional regulation.  With these discoveries we can learn to establish a feeling of safety in the body and reclaim our personal narratives.  

 

Areas of Focus: 

Depression and Anxiety – supporting clients in managing and improving symptoms of depression, learning to manage and lower anxiety in real time using somatic interventions, discovering triggers, and learning to predict and manage depressive episodes. 

 

ADHD – helping clients better understand their diagnosis and develop individually tailored strategies to manage symptoms and modify behaviours that accommodate the client’s needs and goals.  Creating adaptations that work for the client’s specific needs.

 

DBT – Dialectical Behavioural Therapy is a skill based training that can support clients in learning mindfulness, distress tolerance and emotional regulation skills as well as interpersonal effectiveness.

 

2SLGBTQQIA+ informed – inclusive approaches that acknowledge the nuances of diversity in the Queer and Gender Diverse community, with a focus on empowerment and self-determination.
