Stress Management
Whether you’re struggling with the pressure of owning a tech startup, worrying about how you’re going to get back to work after a motor vehicle accident, or dealing with something else altogether, stress management can be tough.
And if you don’t learn to deal with your stress in a healthy way, and address it in a timely manner, the consequences can be severe for both your personal and professional lives.
I can help you come to terms with whatever is going on in your mind, disentangle you from your stress, and teach you how to effectively manage it.
Corporate Wellness
No matter what kind of business you own, ensuring the health and well-being of your employees, while maintaining a high-functioning culture, is no small feat.
First and foremost, you’ve got to be able to nurture a cohesive, talented team of people. And when you own a tech startup and you’re dealing with all the stress of trying to get a product to market, this just makes everything that much more difficult.
With that in mind, I can give you and your team an edge in your industry by helping you to maintain the well-being of employees and nurture a healthy, collaborative culture.
Creativity and Innovation Enhancement
If you want to succeed in the world of business, you’ve got to be creative, innovative, and intuitive.
And when you’re operating in an extremely competitive and fast-paced space, like the tech industry, anxiety and overwhelm can really get to you, and end up eroding your ability to maintain these qualities.
I can help you to sustain the creativity and ability to innovate that you need to ensure your business can thrive by teaching you to become more in touch with your intuitive self and more confident in your own innate wisdom.
Pain Management
No matter who you are, dealing with pain can be mentally, emotionally, and physically debilitating.
But by learning how to come to terms with the reality of your pain, you can deal with it in a much healthier way, regardless of how it’s affecting your life.
Whether you’re seeking ICBC counselling after being hurt in a motor vehicle accident, dealing with chronic pain, or needing to address some other kind of pain, I can help you to effectively deal with it by teaching you how to manage the distress your pain causes and control your reactions to it.
Driving Anxiety
Being in a motor vehicle accident can change your life forever, not least because of how it can make you feel about operating a vehicle or even being a passenger.
No matter how minor your accident was, it can take a lot to get over the anxiety and fear associated with getting back on the road.
If you’re looking for ICBC counselling after being in an accident, I can help you to get over your driving anxiety and safely get back behind the wheel by desensitizing you through exposure therapy and teaching you how to process the trauma of your accident.
Accident-Related PTSD
Being in a motor vehicle accident can be extremely traumatic, and that trauma can have a decidedly negative effect on your life.
The problematic behaviours it inspires can create serious problems related to mobility, autonomy, and one’s ability to earn an income, and it can even affect relationships, among many other things.
So, if you’re looking for counselling after filing an ICBC claim, or you need help processing the trauma of any kind of accident, I can help you to heal your PTSD, move beyond your avoidance of vehicles, and reclaim your independence once and for all.
My Methodology
Unleash Your Potential Through My Innovative Blend of Coaching and Counselling for Complete Corporate Wellness
Regardless of the issues you have, I prefer to use an evidence-based approach that’s enhanced by cognitive therapy methods. I employ a unique approach to therapy looking at issues through a work-related and career-focused lens.
I like to focus on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), but I pride myself on tailoring my counselling methods to whatever’s going to work best for you, so I’m also well-versed in a variety of other modalities, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
Working with me will enable you to move into a state of acceptance, allowing you to come to terms with whatever you’re dealing with, so you can get in touch with your authentic self, get out of your own way, and increase your capacity to take constructive action and solve your own problems.
I also specialize in assisting companies with the implementation of corporate wellness strategies, particularly those in the high-stress world of tech startups, and offering ICBC counselling to help individuals who’ve been in car accidents get over their trauma, while getting back on the road, and back to work.
