You may seek counselling when feeling emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or at a crossroads in life. These experiences are often shaped by family, culture, or long-standing survival patterns of adaptation. Clients may present with anxiety, grief, loss, or a sense of uncertainty during periods of transition, and may be seeking greater clarity, emotional steadiness, and a stronger sense of identity in an increasingly complex world. Your goal is not simply to “feel better,” but to reconnect with meaning, values, and self-trust in order to make thoughtful, authentic life decisions.

I have extensive experience working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, insomnia, and PTSD-related difficulties.
It's time to relax but your mind is racing. Overwhelm and worry are spilling in to your work, your relationships, and your daily life. Maybe you are worried about what others think of you, or not being good enough. If you don't get everything right, something bad might happen. If this sounds familiar, I'd love to help you get back into the life you hope to be living. I help clients to both gain practical tools to manage their daily lives, and address deeper underlying root problems to create long-term change. Let's continue your journey towards the life you hope for yourself together.

Life can hit us so hard and often leaves us feeling alone. As your counsellor, my biggest desire would be that you deeply understand that I am genuinely in your corner and that change is always possible. By being curious and courageous together, self-exploration, shift, and healing can be within reach. I try to steward clients’ vulnerability by drawing upon Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, and Satir. These attachment-based, trauma-informed approaches help me have a holistic view of what it means to be human and create a safe place for you to be your authentic self.

I believe we all thrive when we have healthy connections. I believe this also to be the foundation of effective therapy. As such, building a healthy relationship is always my first goal when working with a new client. Just as we thrive with healthy connections, in my experience, challenging or confusing times tend to feel lonely and isolated. By providing a non-judgmental ear to listen, I am confident that we can alleviate that isolating feeling together. We can work through your life's stressors, determine the best ways to meet your individual needs, tap into your strengths, and fulfill your potential for joy, peace, and purpose.

Sleep or Insomnia Counsellors
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
