Does it seem like even though you try so hard, you just can't feel confident and happy? You're exhausted. You overthink. You criticize yourself. You should have figured things out by now, but you feel stuck and it's not for lack of trying. In your life this can look like anxiety, lack of motivation, procrastinating, impostor syndrome, over-eating, low self-esteem, unsatisfying relationships, a discouraging job or even depression, and feeling like you’re not enjoying life and don’t know what to do anymore. I know these feelings too and how exhausting it feels and I want to let you in on a little secret. This is not your fault.
Our brains are wired for survival instead of happiness and we are biased to look at the world and ourselves with a negative lens. But you can learn to overcome this. I bring 15 years of clinical experience to help you learn new ways to relate to yourself and others, and gain skills to heal from shame, self-criticism and anxiety, and live a satisfying life.
Working at your own pace, I can help you connect with your true values, and learn to not only know you are worthy but to FEEL it. You can learn to enjoy life, to feel safe and secure, to trust in yourself, befriend yourself and be present. If you’d like to learn more about me, my therapy approach or just connect, please visit www.compassionatehealing.ca

In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and we will set a plan to work towards your goals. I mostly use Compassion Focused Therapy in my practice, though I also use theories and techniques from other approaches when helpful (like Mindfulness, CBT, ACT, IFS, Gestalt, etc.). I recommend weekly or biweekly sessions in the beginning and to space sessions out as you progress
