EVERDENE FRANCIS- MCINTOSH

Registered Social Worker, RSW MSW

As a therapist, I believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to
therapy. That's why I've specialized in several techniques, including
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Informed and Strength-based and Narrative Therapy. My approach is tailored to each individual's needs and goals. As a therapist, I'm committed to helping you grow. By understanding your unique experiences, I can help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Let's work together to unlock your potential and create a
brighter future.
