Talk to Val.

With a bubbly energy and a naturally warm heart, Val is a person-centred counsellor dedicated to supporting children and teenagers. Known for bringing a gentle sense of humour into the therapeutic space, Val creates an environment where young people feel truly safe, seen, and heard.
Val operates from the core belief that every client is far more than the challenges they are currently facing. By focusing on the whole person rather than just the "issue," Val empowers young people to rediscover their strengths and navigate life’s hurdles with newfound confidence and resilience.

How we’ll work together:

Person-Centred: You’re in the driver’s seat. I won’t judge you or tell you what to do. We’ll just talk through whatever is on your mind at your own pace.
Solution-Focused: We won’t stay stuck in the heavy stuff. We’ll look at what’s already working for you and brainstorm small, real-life steps to get you closer to the life you want.
Integrative: Everyone is different. I mix and match different tools—like talking, drawing, or coping hacks—to build a session that fits you perfectly.
