About Justine
She has ten years of experience working in both group and individual settings and has supported people with mental health and dual diagnosis issues. Her work often focuses on building coping skills, setting manageable goals, and practicing tools that can be used every day. Justine emphasizes pacing therapy to match each person’s needs rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all plan.
Treatment choices vary by what each person brings to sessions. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior approaches, mindfulness strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and motivational interviewing when those methods fit the goals. Solution-focused ideas are sometimes used to help people identify practical next steps.
Justine encourages clients to try small, consistent changes - she notes that practice makes permanent. She also pays attention to issues like attachment, abandonment, communication problems, and caregiver stress when they come up in sessions. Her aim is to help people gain more control over daily life and to reduce patterns that cause distress.
Therapy with her centers on collaboration, teaching skills, and gradual progress. She supports people who want clearer boundaries, better emotional regulation, or help navigating major life changes.
Therapeutic methods and online care
Justine commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as core tools. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps that reflect personal values, which helps with chronic worry, stress, and life transitions.She also draws on dialectical behavior techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when needed. These skills can help with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulsive behaviors. Choosing an approach is part of the work together; she will help weigh options and tailor methods to the person’s goals and preferences.
