Hello everyone! I am a Registered Psychologist providing Counselling Psychotherapy for persons who experience distress caused by anxiety, phobias, depression, stress, difficulties in relationships, grief, loss and bereavement, childhood emotional traumas, and I also address ambiguous losses and transitions determined by life adjustment including country relocation, changes in marital status and other life developmental and life changing transformations. I welcome clients from all backgrounds. My approach is oriented toward finding meaning and healing personal distress caused by past and present emotional challenges.
I am trained in various approaches and I have over 15 years of experience working as a Psychologist in Europe and North America. In my practice I consider implementing approaches that are the most suitable to the personality, and particularities of each client. My approach in counseling views individual equipped with all the necessary resource and innate adaptive skills for self-growth, and positive transformation. Through counseling the person embarks in a journey of self-discovery, awakening the constructive forces residing within.
I am bilingual, my first language is Romanian, and I immigrated to Canada in 2002. My experience living in-between cultures, helped me develop a good view on the role of culture, tradition, practices in shaping the individual personality, choices, also having a strong impact on the individuals’ physical and psychological health and lifespan development.
