You are someone who handles things. You always have. But lately, handling things has started to feel like surviving them and you are tired of surviving.

You push through because everything you have built depends on you continuing to function. You are not broken. You are a high-performing person carrying more than high performance was designed to hold.

Psychotherapy is the confidential process where you can get insight from an experienced registered Psychologist in understanding how life-stressors can interfere with your thinking patterns, feelings, beliefs, needs, behaviour and relationships. Prolonged exposure to stress, unhappiness, conflict, trauma, abuse or problematic relationships can lead to anxiety, depression, grief, anger or other behavioural problems. Brain research clearly indicated that early psychological intervention can prevent mental and physical illnesses. Clients now have the opportunity to be proactive and learn the skills on how to protect their mental health, restore their competence and happiness and develop a strong sense of well-being and resiliency.

Start moving forward. I work with adults in Vancouver who feel anxious, disconnected, depressed, and have a sense that something is not quite right. Often, this happens with trauma, grief, relationship issues, sexual concerns, or after concussion and brain injury. You might know what happens intellectually, but still find yourself feeling the same pain, struggling in relationships, and unable to find direction. Therapy can help you discover what is happening beneath the surface - and actually begin to change what keeps you stuck. I offer in person therapy in Vancouver and I offer online therapy anywhere in British Columbia.

Like you, your story is unique and important and deserves to be heard in a validating and respectful way. Sometimes the “story we tell ourselves” has negative messages about our worth and abilities and keeps us emotionally, personally or relationally stuck in unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. I would be honored to hear your story and help you strengthen your inner resources to re-author it into one that better reflects who you want to be.
