​Maki has extensive experience working with adults and young adults to help them achieve fulfilment, happiness, and harmony and balance within self or with others. She uses strengths based and client centred approaches. Maki strongly values collaboration with clients to support them in their growth, journey, and healing process. She respects and cherishes each individual’s uniqueness and cultural experiences. She integrates this into therapy goals to promote emotional well-being and improve each individual's overall self-care and quality of life.  Maki draws from various psychotherapy techniques as she firmly believes that we all bring distinct histories, stories, concerns, and resiliency to therapy.  She also believes everyone is capable of positive changes in life. Maki is passionate about helping clients achieve their life goals, while validating, supporting and challenging them in a compassionate manner.
