I draw from the theories of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, RO-DBT, and Motivational Interviewing to name a few.
If you are in search of a counsellor, you’ve taken one of the hardest steps. People seek out counselling for many reasons. Whatever the reason is for you, I’m glad that you are taking this step. My aim is to provide a safe space for you to be your authentic self. My approach to counselling is not one-size fits all. I take the time to get to know you and work with you to determine which approach might work best for you.

Ask yourself... are the struggles I'm experiencing in my life due simply because things are happening to me? Struggles in relationships, traumatic/problematic situations and unwanted thoughts do come into our lives but these struggles lie in our capacity to listen to our emotions and hear what it is they are trying to tell us about all of these things. Our emotions are an early warning system that calls us to action because we are seeking resonance (love, joy, balance, peace) in our lives. When things resonate with us, they feel right. It's a visceral gut reaction. Unfortunately, emotions don't speak English. Our thoughts do.

On the surface it might seem like you have it all together, but in reality, you're worn out. The overthinking, anxious self-doubt, constantly feeling 'not good enough', or body-hatred are getting in the way of the life you want. You've become such a master at putting on a 'mask' for others, but it's exhausting, and it's becoming harder to show up and be present for the people and things that matter the most to you. If this sounds familiar, I can help. For over 22 years I have been helping teens and adults just like you to 'quiet' their inner bully, and to realize the unique awesomeness that already exists within them.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Counsellors
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.
Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behaviour and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.
What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behaviour, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioural change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behaviour; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
