Are you interested in working with a counsellor? Of course you are, or you wouldn't be here. I enjoy working with clients who are motivated and interested in hearing different perspectives, who are ready to step into the unknown and to make some changes in their lives. If you need some support to take some new risks, I'm happy to be here to help support you and cheer you on. I'm also interested in different types of therapy, some that require me to do more of the leading. The choice will always be yours around what you think will be best for you.
I am a Certified EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization) therapist and take my ongoing education seriously, often "nerding out" and trying to explain to my clients new techniques and strategies that we can try. I value a safe place for everyone to experiment with new things, as often that is where the growth happens.
Starting counselling is hard. The first step is e-mailing so I can address your questions and concerns before you come in. The first session is always about trying to find out if the "fit" is right, and although that can be hard, it is where a strong relationship starts.

I often work with clients who have experienced trauma in their lives, often starting in early childhood. During our initial sessions, I will ask a lot of questions about your life experiences and areas where you feel stuck now. We will discuss a plan of action and move into addressing your concerns. You can expect regular check-ins around how you are feeling about your progress.

I often use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) in my sessions with individuals who have experienced trauma. In a first appointment we'll make sure that we are a good fit and establish what your goals are. From there, we'll determine what the right course of therapy looks like for you and what might be most helpful for you.
