Congratulations on taking charge of your life! You are one step closer to getting the help and support that you seek. Asking for help requires courage, and vulnerability, and acknowledging that we all have limitations in our abilities and capacity to handle stress. Asking for help doesn't mean there is something wrong with you, or that you are "broken." Rather it may be that you don't know what to do, or need someone to help guide you through the process. Therapy is meant to be a safe place for you to explore your thoughts, fears, worries and hopes for the future in seeking meaningful chaange without judgement or expectations.

You're here! This step is often the hardest part! Life can be hard... I get it! The stuff that makes life tricky shapes how we see ourselves, how we see others, and how we make sense of the world. Life experiences form our core beliefs that often get in the way of living the life you desire. As an attachment-based therapist, I work hard to create a safe space where you can confront the tough stuff and begin to rewrite your story. I show up with compassion, acceptance, and humour, to dig into what is getting in the way of you living your truth.

People go to therapy for many reasons, and all of them are equally valid. Whatever your reason is, I am so glad that you are here. You may be considering therapy right now because you are feeling stuck - stuck in difficult thoughts, feelings, emotions, behaviours, relationships, and/or situations. Or, you may be mostly doing fine and want to develop self-awareness and understanding to become the best version of yourself and to live your life to the fullest.

Heightened symptoms of anxiety can cause difficulty with concentration, confusion, irritability and frustration. Are you are overthinking, worrying, and having trouble making sense of your emotions? Symptoms of depression can cause you to shut down due to an increase of stress. This can make socializing, work-related tasks, and taking care of yourself feel too overwhelming. Some symptoms of anxiety and/or depression can leave you feeling emotionally and physically exhausted. You are here for a reason. Allow me to support you as you deserve to be well and find yourself again.

When you feel all hope is lost, there is STILL hope! Vincent van Gogh said, “There may be a great fire in our soul, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke.” I consider my job to hear and feel with you the great fire of your soul—your struggles, feelings of hopelessness and worry, feeling controlled by your emotions and past trauma, repeating patterns of conflict, battling addiction, or fighting an inner battle that others may not fully understand or appreciate.
