Psychotherapy for Post-Secondary Students
Psychotherapy can be a valuable resource for post-secondary students facing the unique challenges of academic stress, social pressures, and transitional periods in their lives. As a psychotherapist, I offer a neutral and safe space for students to explore their feelings, thoughts, and concerns.
During therapy sessions, students can examine their goals, navigate relationship issues, manage anxiety or depression, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. With the demands of higher education often leading to increased stress and emotional strain, psychotherapy can provide students with the support they need to improve their mental well-being and academic performance.
If you are a post-secondary student struggling to balance the demands of school and personal life, or experiencing difficulties that affect your overall well-being, consider reaching out for counselling to help you navigate this challenging time in your life.
Psychotherapy for Instructors and Professors
I offer psychotherapy services tailored to meet the unique needs of academic instructors and professors. Our sessions provide a safe and confidential space for professors to explore and address the challenges they face within academia and beyond.
My approach is rooted in understanding the intricate demands of the academic world, including the pressures of research, publishing, teaching, and professional relationships. I work collaboratively with instructors to navigate work-related stress, imposter syndrome, burnout, and other mental health concerns that may arise in their roles.
Through a neutral and supportive lens, I help professors develop coping strategies, improve self-care practices, set boundaries, enhance communication skills, and work towards achieving a healthier work-life balance. My goal is to empower instructors to prioritize their well-being, enhance their resilience, and thrive both personally and professionally.
