Fabienne Hilal, MA

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

Verified

I believe therapy should provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while gaining the insight and practical skills needed to navigate life's challenges.

About Me

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and I provide evidence-based therapy for adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, personality difficulties, and other emotional and behavioural challenges. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, navigate life's challenges, and build practical skills that support your wellbeing. I strive to provide warm, supportive, and confidential environment where you feel comfortable expressing your thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly. My therapeutic style is collaborative, structured, and tailored to your individual needs, ensuring that therapy remains focused, practical and relevant to your goals. I recognize that every person's experiences are unique. For this reason, I take the time to understand your individual circumstances and tailor therapy accordingly.

Approach

Depending on your presenting difficulties, therapy may draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and the Common Elements Treatment Approach (CETA). The therapeutic approach will be guided by your individual needs and treatment goals.
