Therapists in T6C

My ideal family is one that is tired of hurting each other. My ideal family has at least one family member, usually a teenager, impacted by drugs, alcohol, and process addictions like video games. The healthy part of the family is motivated by fear to use control to stop their teenager from their addictive behaviour. If control is ineffective then power struggles can develop which tear at the family power structures. My ideal family has at least one family member who learns addictions are rooted in multigerational issues, trauma, and mental illness. Families want healthy loving interconnections and not power struggles.

Choosing a therapist can be an intimidating task. Whether you are looking for a check in, or to make major or minor changes, I would be honored to support you in your journey. I aim to be as intentional as possible in my sessions. Helping you identify your goals, gain a further understanding of the barriers you face and where they developed and make a tangible plan to get you to where you want to be. I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for my clients, with a splash of humor while we navigate your experiences and emotions. You can find me on the Power Psychology Website where I offer a free 15 minute consultation.

Do you ever feel as if you're wading through three feet of water while everyone else effortlessly walks on dry land? And the thought of taking a break, even for a moment, fills you with fear that you might fall apart. It's a exhausting and lonely experience, leaving you in discontent and longing for relief.

What is the MORE you are searching for? Many people seek out therapy because they are tired of their lives or they want to get rid of the words in their head that beat them down. They want to find a better them. More can mean a number of things- joy, confidence, motivation, creativity, or boldness (to name a few). Creating change is not easy or fast, but we have to start somewhere. One of the best feelings is being seen and heard for who we are- it feels so good, yet can be so scary at the same time. It may feel out of reach, and that's okay.

I have over 20 years experience offering treatment to individuals, couples and families seeking support to improve life areas and wanting to experience an increase in life satisfaction. My experience and training have enabled me to provide effective strategies to help facilitate positive change and growth.

Changes in one's life can result in many possibilities that can be overwhelming for some, and exciting for others.To manage the changes that occur in our life, we create our own personal safety net as a means for protection and safety from the potential dangers that can be brought on from change.However, an over reliance on these personal safety nets may lead to feeling like being imprisoned and trapped inside one's shell. This could eventually result in feelings of depression and anxiety.
