Are you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself and from others? Are you struggling with distressing thoughts and feelings? Are you desiring to understand yourself better and to nourish aspects of yourself that have been dormant? Perhaps you are seeking a space to feel witnessed, supported, and understood. Together, we can explore where you are coming from, what is holding you back, and where you want to go. My experience as a counsellor continues to teach me about the transformative possibilities that exist as we dissolve the sense of aloneness that so many of us feel.
I have experience working alongside communities affected by intergenerational trauma, and I frequently work with adults and youth impacted by childhood trauma, anxiety, and stress. My background in expressive arts therapy, and training in trauma focused modalities such as EMDR, inform my approach to working with the effects of trauma.
I know that reaching out for help and meeting a counsellor can feel daunting. I welcome you wherever you are at, and hope to bring warmth and ease to this process. I offer a free 20 minute consultation to get to know each other and to answer any questions you may have. I am currently practicing with Expressions Counselling: www.expressionscounselling.com
