You know your life.
I know how to help you make it better.
Simone McCreary-Oikawa,
M.Sc., R. Psych.
The best therapy is collaborative. You bring unique knowledge about your experiences and circumstances; my knowledge is in how to help you access all of your understanding to work through challenging times and find the best solutions.
Coaching is a bit different. As a coach, I bring my expertise in specific strategies and techniques that you can apply in your life to enhance your relationship, manage anxiety or ADHD, or enrich new parenthood.
You get the best of both worlds!
