About Nelson
I have spent over 20 years working in different capacities with children, adults, and families. My experiences including working in school settings, home settings, health care, non-profit agencies, for-profit practices, employee assistance programs, community centres, and government agencies.
I will spend time to understand you and your situation in a safe and client-centered approach so that we can find ways to create the life you always wanted and needed. My approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed/sensitive, neuroscience/evidence-based with a focus on insight (emotion and cognitive awareness and shifts) and behavioural changes. I have training in Adlerian, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman’s Level 1, Emotion Focused Family Therapy, EMDR, and play therapies, such as Watch, Wait, and Wonder, and CPRT. I am LGBT+ positive, and I am a child of Chinese immigrants.
Specialization with couples, parent-child/teen conflicts, anxiety and traumatic histories. Full 60 minute sessions
