The heart behind Living Waters Counselling

A Little About Me

Hi, I'm Emily, and I'm so glad you're here.

I look to create a compassionate and caring space to navigate life’s challenges and difficulties. I am committed to walking alongside clients in the exploration of their unique strengths and hardships.

I believe that clients are the experts of their own experiences and that change is always possible. My approach to therapy is systemic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed. I brings experience in working with trauma and relationship struggles, as well as addiction, faith, anxiety, and stress.

I’m honored to partner with clients in the journey toward meaningful change, through a collaborative and compassionate approach.  Empowering you in your healing, growth, and transformation. 

My Approach to Faith and Counselling

My Christian faith is an important part of who I am and helps shape the compassion, hope, and care I bring to my work.

At the same time, Living Waters Counselling is a welcoming space for people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and walks of life.

Faith-based conversations or Christian perspectives can be incorporated into counselling if that is something you are looking for. They are never an expectation or requirement.

Your experiences, values, and goals guide our time together.
