During my practicum I was able to

   observe sessions ran by my supervisor, 

   which served as an invaluable way to learn the 

      foundational and intricate elements of counselling.

           As I began to see my own clients, I started working 

                with individuals with a variety of concerns ranging

           from: anxiety,depression, suicidal ideation, relational 

                    concerns, career development, self-esteem and 

                  confidence issues. I was provided the opportunity 

         to be the"team counsellor" for a local hockey team of

                    13/14 year-olds, providing group and individual 

              psycho-education and performance enhancement                 strategies. I was also able to run my own tween

girl group focusing on empowerment and

                               self-esteem building.
