Making the decision to seek counselling is not easy! My goal is to help guide my clients through challenging periods in their life to a place of balance and mental well-being in a client centered, non judgmental manner. I believe my well rounded experiences, easy going nature and true care and compassion for people allows my clients the freedom to work with me in a confidential, trauma informed environment. Based on the individual clients goals, needs and preferences, I personalize the counselling experience in a way that is meaningful to them.

My favourite work is supporting LGBT+ clients explore body image/acceptance, eating disorder recovery, Identity exploration (ADHD,Autism, Gender, Sexuality, Relationship Orientations), Chronic Illness and Chronic Pain, Sex work and Kink (especially in navigating wellbeing and new dynamics). Looking at the above themes from a place of curiosity, encouraging you to find your internal compass and lean into who you are, your wants, desires, and needs by learning to shed the cloak of expectations and embrace future possibility. I do this by centering your experience of the world and bringing approaches that align with who you are.

Attachment-based Counsellors
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
