15 years of experience, working with children and adults, taught me there is no one fit for all solutions.
Do you feel overwhelmed by events, feelings, people? Do you struggle with your daily tasks, interacting with others, and managing your emotions? Does it feel like you are in a repetitive loop, unable to break free, no matter how hard you try to get out? This situation might be draining and overwhelming to deal with alone. Maybe it is time to approach all these questions in a secure environment. Sharing your thoughts and feelings with a non-judgmental and compassionate person, able to walk with you on the path of self-discovery, might help you reach your full potential and self-accomplishment.

We all go through challenging times in our lives. Many of us decide to seek counselling when we feel stuck, unsure how to move forward in a relationship with a spouse, child, sibling, or parent; or a colleague or co-worker. At these times, we can be anxious, depressed, angry, easily irritated, or simply depleted. Intense feelings or responses are often a sign that something important needs to be addressed.

People who deal with anxiety, high stress levels, PTSD, are recovering from concussion, or children or adults who have ADHD, autism or learning disabilities are the clients I see the most.
