Hope Centered Counselling, Fergus: Do you feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward? Are you navigating loss, wrestling with questions about relationships or who you are? You might long for a space where you can bring all the messy, complicated parts of yourself without having to explain or apologize. That’s the space I want to create for you.
SOS- Physiotherapy, Guelph: Whether you are navigating a challenging life transition, experiencing chronic pain or illness that affects your day to day life, or feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t serving you - you are not alone. I believe the mind and the body are deeply connected and whole health comes from strengthening this connection.

I draw on many different therapies to best suit your needs. I most frequently use somatic therapies which explore how our body stores and processes our experiences. I often include skills from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy as well as Dialectic Behaviour therapy to support you in establishing internal resources and safety. My highest priority is that the sessions are flexible and tailored to you.
