I support clients managing emotional challenges, BPD traits, depression, OCD, perfectionism, negative internal dialogue, addiction, grief, trauma, and difficult family dynamics. Together we explore a client's history, experience, emotions, and develop better skills for managing challenges. Often maladaptive coping strategies are no longer serving the client. Developing relational intimacy with others, and more compassionate communication with self is integral to my work with individuals and families. Together we find solutions for healing and moving forward in healthy ways so clients can align more authenticly with themselves.
I'm a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor in private practice, accepting new clients in person, by phone, email, and Zoom. I practice trauma informed CBT with Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness to address relationship issues, childhood trauma, intergenerational family trauma, depression, and grief, and BPD.
Our sessions provide a safe and caring environment for the expression of client trauma, emotions, and grief. It's important to me that I help clients identify the power within themselves to overcome loss, family of origins trauma and neglect, and negative thought and behavior patterns so they can begin the process of healing.
