Marriage Counselling Therapists in Cranbrook, BC

I have a passion for being active. Following this passion, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science and a Master’s Degree in Sport Psychology. I have had the privilege of working with student-athletes, providing mental training for athletes and coaches, and coaching gymnastics across the US and Canada. I have used these experiences during my sessions with weekend warriors, athletes, coaches, and even those who hate sport. As I worked with these individuals, I saw the challenges they faced also affected their families. This prompted me to continue my education to add a focus on Marriage and Family therapy.

I support adults and adolescents who are struggling with a range of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, grief, substance use disorders, sleep disorders, compassion fatigue, moral injury, and others. My clients often arrive feeling at the end of their rope - lost, alone, angry, afraid, overwhelmed, thoroughly drained, hopeless, or sometimes just completely stuck. They want their lives to be better, but don’t know how to begin to identify steps to take or how to manage that change. They want help dealing with difficult emotions and they want their lives to make sense.

When we experience trauma, our whole system can feel on edge, not just with the big things, but the days to day as well. You might notice a struggle with persistent low mood, shame, chronic anxieties, and have a discouraging outlook on the future. It's easy to feel exhausted by your circumstances and at a loss as to what to do next. Trauma impacts everything about you and can steal the quality and joy from your life. It might be a specific event or moments over a lifetime that have built up that contribute to how you're feeling and I'm here whilst we unravel the threads that make it all so confusing and help it make sense.

I believe that health, joy and compassion is our human birth-right. We all have the innate drive for growth and healing, and counseling helps this to emerge. Therapy acts as a positive space in which to grow and heal in order to be able to be present in your life with integrity, purpose and understanding. My purpose is to create the space for you to discover more about your true nature; what is authentic and right for you in your life. I enjoy working with people who are committed to their growth and unfolding. I commit to being fully present with you and to provide direct, honest focus and support.

Do you feel stuck, anxious, or like you are living in "survival" mode? Feel like you are crumbling on the inside, trying to hold it all together with work, your family, and/or in your relationship.

I help adults and youth overcome stress, anxiety, or disconnection so that they can do more of what they love and deepen their relationships with the people that matter the most.

Each one of us will struggle at some point in our lives, but these are particularly challenging times for many us. With lockdown, stress, anxiety, and depression are increasing, as are unhelpful coping strategies. Relationships are being tested.
