My potential clients may or may not have a clear sense of what brings them to therapy. They may be dealing with depression, anxiety, or addiction, among other things. They may be experiencing trouble in relationships, whether it be with family, friends, partners, coworkers, roommates, and others. They want to understand themselves and their relationships better. They are open to the non-linear nature of personal progress.

**Waitlisting for January 2021 ** Healing involves connecting with ourselves through each other, and to each other through ourselves. We are inter-dependently connected, and yet there is dis-connection. Interpersonal harm, systemic barriers and institutional violence impact each and every one of us. By working together collaboratively, we can identify the barriers limiting your potential, create tools unique to your situation, deepen your capacity to learn how to learn and communicate about communication, as well as re-discover the power of emotions, and gain clarity of purpose.

(WAITLIST CLOSED) Sometimes it's difficult to get unstuck from our emotions, but try to think of them as waves of an ocean—coming and going, rising and falling... Never permanent and always moving. Experiencing your emotions and allowing yourself to be vulnerable is a true strength, not a weakness. Together, we can address personal difficulties, explore options, develop coping strategies, and identify strengths. Counselling and psychotherapy can promote healing, resiliency, and self-empowerment, and it is tailored to each client's individual and unique needs. What works for one client may not work for another.

Therapy can help us to connect with ourselves and others, find meaning, joy, love, acceptance, playfulness and peace of mind. If you are recovering from trauma, if you are stuck or struggling, therapy can create a safe space to work through painful and difficult emotions and experiences in order to live better and feel better. I value creativity, compassion and collaboration. My approach is drawn from attachment theory, narrative therapy, trauma-informed somatic therapies, mindful self-compassion and relational therapy.

Some clients come to therapy because they need a chance to work through events that have had a negative influence on their wellbeing. Other clients may have never had a chance to know their own desire: what it is that they value and want out of life. Some clients come for support with a specific diagnosis, and others have a vague sense that something is just not right. Sometimes clients have found that they simply benefit from a place to focus on their own mental health.

One of the most important aspects to my practice and in our work together is to create a space that fosters safety, trust and openness. When you are in a space where you’re able to access your authentic thoughts, feelings and experiences- that’s where real change and growth can happen! Throughout our lives we learn ways of navigating the world. Often we don’t have the opportunity or privilege to learn ways of coping and processing that serve us in a beneficial way. We do the best we can with the information we have at the time...and that’s surviving! I’d love to help you move from surviving to truly living!

If one or more of these connections are malfunctioning or broken, it can affect everything in our life from relationships, to career uncertainty, to personal success etc. Each of us has an extraordinary power within that when tapped into can transform our lives. Healing the Self from within has profound effects on a woman's life. Your capacity to be, care, grow, and give can improve over time with guidance, clarity and practice.

In my work, I adopt a non-pathologizing approach. I view emotional distress as information that needs to be explored and understood. Many of the struggles clients want help with are coping strategies that worked at an earlier time in their lives, but are no longer adaptive. I work with clients to explore how those behaviours came to be, how they served them, and how to help clients cultivate new strategies that are more adaptive. I see much of learning as unlearning and view healing as a process that unfolds in relationship.
