Overview

Therapy with Vesna My approach is to meet clients where they are, guided by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth. I listen deeply and use evidence-based therapies tailored to your individual mental health symptoms and concerns. I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where you can bring your authentic self, and where interventions are selected to effectively address your presenting concerns and treatment goals. Drawing on therapies such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), I work across the lifespan and am especially passionate about supporting minority and disadvantaged groups.
