Is your life all you want it to be? Are you struggling to make changes on your own and it just ISN'T working? I offer skilled and compassionate counselling in a non-judgmental, safe and confidential environment where you can share your concerns, gain perspective and learn specific, targeted tools to help you navigate life's challenges, improve wellness and heal and move past life's difficulties.

You’ve been pushing through, but lately it feels like you’re running on empty. Life has become a checklist of responsibilities, and somewhere along the way, you’ve lost a sense of joy, clarity, or even connection to yourself. Maybe you’re questioning who you are, feeling weighed down by the past, or stuck in a cycle of burnout and “just getting through the day.” I offer a space to pause, breathe, and to explore what’s really going on beneath the surface. Together, we can make sense of your experiences, work through what’s been holding you back, and help you feel more grounded, joyful, and aligned with the life you want.

In SMART therapy clients are directed to REGULATE through MOVEMENT and as a result START TALKING so problem solving and healing can happen. Therapy is provided in a specially designed room with specialized equipment, such as arial swings, spinning, weighted blankets, balance beams, fitness balls, person sized pea-pod, body socks, dolphin pillows, and safe cubby holes, and tents. Movement, rest and safety is used to support natural ways of regulating bodies and emotions, facilitate parent-child attachment-building and allow for embodied processing of hurtful and traumatic experiences. It is not at all like traditional play therapy.

Welcome! What if the goal of therapy isn’t to 'fix' who you are, but to help you access more of your true self? Therapy with me is collaborative, authentic, and yes—there’s laughter. I believe healing doesn’t have to be heavy all the time. We’ll get curious together about what matters most to you, gently untangle the stuff that’s getting in the way, and build psychological flexibility so you can move toward a life that feels more like yours. My approach is grounded in compassion, honesty, and honoring your lived experience. Come as you are!
