Hello! Do you feel panic or have moods that you struggle to control and seem to intrude at the worst possible times? Like when you're trying to sleep? Or when you're talking to someone new? Maybe it's when you're at work talking to your boss or peers? Do you feel guilt, anger, sadness, or maybe have feelings of uneasiness you struggle to name? Are your relationships struggling because of these symptoms? Do you isolate? Mental health symptoms are often overlooked or misdiagnosed. What if you were able to manage these symptoms and achieve your optimum well-being?
I help people to manage their symptoms, and reclaim control in their lives. Everyone's story is unique and crucial in understanding how to best overcome life's challenges. I welcome you to share your story with me so that we can identify your areas of strength and resilience and build upon these assets to heal your pain and move from surviving to thriving.
I have the expertise in counselling, but I believe my clients are the experts in their lives. I will honor that stance throughout our work together. I offer you a space to be seen and heard - a space to share your story - a space for your unique healing journey. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to ensure a goodness of fit for your needs.

Patience, understanding, and validation of your experience are the foundations of my approach. I work from a trauma-informed lens. As said by Dawn Serra, "There is no timestamp on trauma. There isn't a formula that you can insert yourself into to get from horror to healed. Be patient. Take up space. Let your journey be the balm."
