We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future." George Bernard Shaw While working together there is but one expert and, ultimately, one person responsible for your life. That person is you. I consider it an honour to work alongside people who are motivated for change and moving forward in life. We are all very complex and unique I seek to help you identify and address your needs, challenges and goals from a respectful and supportive role. "Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you." Jean-Paul Sartre
I have extensive experience & skills with PTSD among military/first responders, health care professionals, addictions, families and navigating insurance challenges. My previous experience in law enforcement and complex health challenges, including insurance issues, is unique and at your service. EMDR certified. I work telephonically across Canada
Define 'normal'? You are not merely the result of past experiences, genetics or events. Rather, you are the author of your life and authorship IS responsibility. Responsibility can seem like an awesome power or a heavy burden but it is, ultimately, ours to own and forms a core part of our identity. With awareness of self, comes awareness of choice.
