Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Roberta. I’m a registered social worker with more than ten years of experience working in various areas of support and practice in London, Ontario. Whether you want to address small or larger challenges in your life, I hope that you will consider inviting me to come alongside you so that we can work together to achieve the change that you are envisioning.

My Approach to Therapy

I work with clients using a strength-based, person-centered, and trauma-informed approach. This means that the therapeutic work I do is based on and driven by my client’s strengths and their vision of what changes they want to achieve. It also means that any work I do will be sensitive to the presence of trauma (known or unknown) that may be impacting a client’s life. In this work I use a combination of clinical techniques, depending on what will feel most comfortable and work most effectively for my client. The approaches I draw from include:

• motivational interviewing

• solution-focused brief-therapy, 

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

• Narrative Therapy, 

• Grief and Crisis Therapy
