I work with individuals with a wide-range of concerns and backgrounds but my main areas of focus are working with anxiety, eating disorders, ADHD and addiction issues. In my therapeutic approach, I aim to understand you and your world. Although people may share the same common symptoms, issues, and life’s ups and downs: no two people experience them exactly the same. It is important for me to understand how you experience things, so I can help you find solutions that fit for you. Together we will work collaboratively to figure out what is working for you and how to change the things that are not.

The COVID-19 Pandemic, Russian-Ukrainian conflict, runaway inflation, housing/food crisis, rise in violent crime, etc.; what do all of these events have in common? They subconsciously affect everyone's behaviour and thoughts. All of us are part of the same social fabric, and what affects the whole affects its parts, & vice-versa. No one is immune from these external influences; everybody feels the consequences of global, political & economic turmoil. The effects may be subtle, but our mood, energy & health are unequivocally impacted; our perception of ourselves & others may fluctuate wildly and our relationships suffer considerably.

Therapy can often feel overwhelming and scary, which is why I focus on creating a safe and secure foundation within the therapeutic space. I believe that this foundation begins from a relational approach, so I ensure that my practice is grounded in collaboration. I focus sessions on creating a non-judgmental space for you to be unapologetically vulnerable. I will meet you in each session with compassion, empathy, and warmth, and support you in building new coping tools to build on the strengths and skills that you already have.

People come to therapy because something keeps them from having the meaningful life they want. Sometimes, knowing what exactly we're reaching for is the concern, sometimes, it's needing support with the hardships they are facing, or it's wanting to figure out what the next steps are. Whether it be dealing with chronic or acute stress that is lowering their quality of life and just isn't working, feeling out of control with addiction concerns and exploring the roots, depression and anxiety that sends thoughts of "not good enough" or helpless feelings - everyone deserves to have a fulfilled life.

Welcome! You feel like you feel for very good reasons. Symptoms of anxiety and depression are a natural response to real life experiences. Unfortunately, we can struggle to find our internal resources when these events occur, and then we have great difficulty using our resources and natural wisdom to make changes to get better. I work within a range of CBT and DBT informed strategies, to gain mastery over problems that can seem unsolvable. Are you frustrated and curious about why it can be so hard to get the basic things that you want in life? Is it hard to even know what you want? Do you wonder where to start? I can help.

Why do we make the choices that we do? Life provides unique experiences that affect people in different ways. These experiences contribute positively or negatively to our well-being and guide our life choices and impulses. It is important to honour the good things we have encountered but it is vital to address the challenges that we have faced, especially when they keep us stuck.
