Mitch Mackay, RCC

Philosophy

It is always interesting to me how we hold ourselves at a standard of which we would never ask a friend to attain to, yet get upset with ourselves when we don’t reach such excellence. Why is that? My approach as a counsellor is to promote resilience and provide effective coping skills to manage mental health in the face of adversity. I enjoy enlisting humor when bringing awareness to life’s challenges, as laughter really is the best medicine. My goal of helping clients find happiness and balance for a positive wellbeing is my journey, let’s get started together.
