Are you struggling to navigate life's twists and turns, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression? Do you yearn for a sense of direction, clarity, and emotional well-being? Perhaps you're a parent seeking support for your child's emotional struggles. Your desire for relief and understanding deserves a space to be acknowledged and respected. Together, we'll explore your challenges, unearth your strengths, and chart a path toward healing and resilience.

My goal as a counsellor is to make you feel heard, acknowledged, and empowered. I utilize an integrative approach to therapy, and value your feedback and input throughout the process. I am here to support you with the challenges you are experiencing and the changes you desire to make. I have experience working with adults in various life stages as well as teens and young adults.

It is a privilege to participate in the growth and healing of my clients. I work actively and collaboratively with individuals to help them move towards their goals. My approach draws from a number of therapeutic models, including intensive short-term psychodynamic therapy (ISTDP), emotion-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and narrative therapy. I provide individual psychotherapy to people struggling with traumatic events, serious illness or injury, chronic pain, depression, anxiety, grief, dissociation, and relationship problems.

Are you feeling confused or frustrated in your relationships? Desperately wondering what is wrong? I work with individuals and couples in identifying their behavioural patterns and their conflicting communication by using the Gottman Method for healthier relationships and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. The intent of our sessions will also be to find your natural skills and inclinations already in place, and thereby encourage real change through the promotion of interpersonal strengths rather than social weaknesses.

Would you like to feel motivated by life? Cultivate genuine, loving relationships? Feel comfortable in your skin, regardless of what life throws your way? Well you’re certainly not alone! Connection, self-esteem, and self-actualization have all been identified as human needs—essential to our mental health and well-being. Unfortunately, certain emotional, behavioural, or relational patterns can act as barriers to these needs, quelling our personal growth, and leaving us confined to oppressive cycles of anxiety and distress. Relate to any or all of the above? I think we all can—and perhaps I can help.

In times of life challenges, we suffer not only as individuals but also in our relationships. Since 2008, it has been my passion to support individuals, couples and families in their quest to turn personal and relationship challenges into opportunities for personal growth and greater connection. I feel privileged to work collaboratively with my clients to help them implement the positive changes they desire to achieve. I welcome you into an inspiring, trusting, safe, non-judgmental and confidential environment for you to discover your strengths, your challenges and your potential that is waiting to be unfolded.

“When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside of you as fate" (Carl Jung) ……………………….……………… You have all that you need—though you might not see it right now. My role as therapist is to guide you attentively with a “clear mirror”, so you can witness-feel-process what’s necessary to move forward.

Currently Accepting New Clients. Over the past 18 years, my approach has explored connecting the mind, body, and spirit and so I utilize various techniques from these diverse traditions. I work to provide a welcoming space to explore the uniqueness of this human journey and marvel at the wisdom of our bodies to find healing despite difficult traumas and challenges. I bridge the world of psychology and spirituality to create curiosity about the interplay between these worlds and how we fit in the middle. I provide preparation and integration support for clients participating in Psychedelic Therapies.

Tired of fighting with life? Feeling drained of energy, demoralized and running out of options? Are you sabotaging yourself? Frustration and confusion can lead to hopelessness and fear. You can’t stay connected to the good life, others, or even yourself… This is a horrible place to be! But we don’t have to live here. What you need is someone with experience and skill to come alongside you, in acceptance, bringing clarity – illuminating reasons why this has been happening to you; all of which bring safety, hope, and direction to your life. I was once here, but now I’m not; now I have a roadmap to get you out of here…

Are you struggling right now? Are you feeling stuck? Are you feeling anxious? Are you grieving? Is it hard for you to reach out for help? Are you being heard or seen? Do you have supports in place? I am here to provide you a listening ear and support you by helping you set your goals and help you find coping strategies. The word 'therapy' can cause fear. We can work collaboratively to find what works best for you. My interventions will help you connect with your body and mind which will in turn help with your thoughts, feelings and body sensations.

Feel overwhelmed or burned out, struggling to focus or decompress? Uncertain of what you need to do? Let's make sense of your concerns, find a clear way forward, and get you back on track. Inner balance is key to growth and success, but isn't easy to develop. With proven approaches and a decade of practice, I will help you establish lasting wellness so you can stay on top of what really matters - your interests, responsibilities, and relationships.

Are you noticing some ongoing challenges in your relationships to others and yourself? Do you ever feel a void, an emptiness or even a cloud following you wherever you go and you can't seem to fully get why? That can be an extremely difficult and painful experience, especially as you are trying to navigate through the world. Unfortunately, most of us don't set enough time aside to tune into ourselves, heal some of our wounds and navigate through our complex layers. This avoidance can lead to some long-term affects in our intimate relationships, at work, with our kids, and more.

As your therapist, I would be here to get to know you and to guide you in developing skills and insights to create changes that are real, meaningful and sustainable. I will be entirely present and tuned in to what you are experiencing, your fears, distress, motivations and goals. The process will be explorative, providing you with an understanding of how your experiences, thoughts, emotions and behaviours impact one another. Structure will help reach outcomes for your goals, mental health, identity, life transitions and relationships. Your feedback will be encouraged and use to guide your unique treatment, we will work as a team.
