Meet Kate Tiano, Counselling Intern

Meet Kate:

Hi, I’m Kate! I am a RP-Q counselling intern, who thrives on establishing meaningful relationships and empowering individuals. As a mother of two, I have firsthand experience with the challenges of navigating parenthood and understand the unexpected twists and turns that come with it.

Using a person-centered approach, I draw on techniques from narrative therapy, mindfulness and solution-focused therapy. I will always strive to provide a safe and culturally sensitive environment for you to heal and grow. I am committed to helping clients navigate the complexities of their needs by providing suggestions for coping mechanisms and strategies to maintain your emotional and mental well-being.

My goal is to meet you where you are, with empathy and compassion, no matter you current circumstances. I am constantly humbled and inspired by the resilience and strength clients demonstrate and I am honoured to have the opportunity to accompany you on your journey.

Kate offers counselling both online and at our Central location.
