Accepting new clients! I specialize in eating disorders, body image, trauma (PTSD & CPTSD), self esteem, anxiety, & depression. My approach to healing includes both the mind and body. If you struggle with insecurities, self criticism, managing emotions, overthinking, destructive behaviours, or relationship issues, I would love to support you. I can help you to shift underlying beliefs, safely process trauma, and utilize effective coping strategies. Counselling can lead to increased self confidence, inner peace, and deeper meaning in life. I am also an EMDR therapist, reiki practitioner, and a guided breathwork facilitator.
I specialize in disordered eating (yo yo dieting, restriction, binge eating, emotional eating, binge-purge, etc.), body image, self esteem, and self-confidence. I also focus on: people pleasing, shame, childhood trauma, self worth, self control, personal growth, and self-acceptance. I primarily use modalities such as: CBT, DBT, mindfulness, somatic, & EMDR.
It takes courage to reach out for help. If you are open to healing and becoming the version of yourself you want to be, I am here to safely guide you. If you would like to release the thoughts, feelings, & patterns that no longer serve you, and live a more joyful, peaceful life, please reach out! I also have an office therapy cat to support you.
