Have you ever wondered: How much of my problem is me generated and how much is other people or circumstances? You know you are responsible for making changes in your life and yet things happen that make that change seemingly impossible. How can I change my private self and how I relate outwardly? Can I move from victim to survivor, from bully to challenger from rescuer to supporter even when the world and those around me don't cooperate? It's a question worth exploring. Spoiler Alert! It's very possible!

I specialize in helping people who are struggling with anxiety, life transitions, trauma, parenting, relationships, loss and more. Many people that come for help are those who feel stuck overcoming obstacles and have tried to change their situation without success. I help people turn these obstacles into opportunities for understanding and growth.

Throughout this journey, I have supported people facing a wide range of concerns: anxiety and stress, depression, anger, relationship struggles, panic attacks, PTSD, low confidence, recovery from sexual assault or abuse, spiritual trauma, childhood trauma, and more.
My practice is grounded in a steady belief that healing begins with honesty. As a therapist, I create a structured and compassionate space for that honesty — a place to explore the stories, patterns, and wounds that shape how we live and love, with the aim of creating thoughtful, lasting change.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by emotions that seem too big to carry... anger, grief, shame, fear or just complete shut down, a feeling of numbness. Perhaps you’re struggling to break patterns in relationships, heal from trauma and break out of survival mode. You may be longing to feel safe in your body again, to trust yourself, or even reconnect with your faith after being hurt in religious/ spiritual settings. My clients are often deep feelers and are highly sensitive and they want to live from a place of authenticity, peace and alignment with their true self and possibly also with God, in a way that feels safe and loving.

At times feelings, or life circumstances become so intense or painful, we become desperate to find ways to fix, avoid, or control them. We may get stuck in worry and self-doubt, avoid meaningful activities, feel unable to let go of control, withdraw from relationships, shut down feelings, ruminate on past hurts, escape into TV, the internet, video games, drugs or alcohol, or get pulled into compulsive or impulsive behaviours. What was meant to fix the problem, ends up making it worse. As life becomes about controlling feelings, it becomes less about what is really important to us - our values and passions.

Sexual Abuse Counsellors
How do therapists treat sexual abuse?
A good therapist will be nonjudgmental and possibly demonstrate active listening, repeating back what the client says to show that they have understood. These skills allow people to feel comfortable discussing their traumatic experiences openly. Some important treatment goals are to restore a sense of safety and to rebuild confidence. In addition to working one-on-one with the patient, a therapist might bring in supportive family members to assist the client.
Do you have to talk extensively about sexual abuse in therapy?
Survivors frequently find it difficult to describe what happened to them out loud. They can even still be in a state of denial if the sexual abuse occurred recently. It is important for survivors to acknowledge that what happened isn’t their fault and to challenge and reappraise any unhealthy feelings or thoughts as they arise. Art therapy and play therapy are useful non-verbal means of communication for some survivors.
How long does treatment for sexual abuse take?
Recovery from sexual abuse can be a long and difficult process. Some survivors are able to move on naturally on their own, given time, while others require the guidance of a trained therapist. Therapy needs vary and can range from a few sessions to months or even years. Healing from sexual abuse takes time, and everyone’s journey will look a little different.
Can trauma symptoms caused by sexual abuse come back after treatment?
As occurs in many cases of trauma, survivors of sexual abuse may experience PTSD-like symptoms long after the abuse has ceased or after an initial round of treatment has occurred. In such a case, there is evidence that prolonged exposure therapy is a useful treatment for survivors, and may be more efficacious than supportive counseling alone. While triggers may continue to cause distress, the idea is that, with time and repeated exposure, their power will fade, allowing survivors to move on with their lives.
