We both know that if you made your way here...then the pot is boiling over...sighh...the pressure is getting worser isn't it?.... You want to change some behaviours or thoughts of yourself, and yet you find yourself in this dark and heavy place that blocks you from the change or outcome that you deeply desire. - you might have even tried; yet the self-defeating behaviours seem to get you every time. Step into this safe space, and lean into me to gain insight, experience relatedness, gain effective tools, effective thought processing, be asked questions that tap into that deep space. Let's connect to begin that journey together.

Taking the first step toward self-care and healing can be intimidating! I understand, empathize, and welcome you to share your story within a safe, accepting, and non-judgemental space.

My approach is grounded in the belief that we are all doing the very best we can with the resources, knowledge and experience we have. That being said, we can always continue to learn and grow….and this is where we start. I have spent the bulk of my professional life supporting people with compounding experiences of marginalization and structural vulnerability, including experiences from childhood that may continue to linger and live in this very moment. I believe in the practice of weaving together therapeutic strategies to ensure individualized and personalized care.

I help people who are stuck, uncertain, and hurting. I work with adults and teenagers, many of which are sent by other family members, and couples. The top 5 issues I see the most include: Relational strain, Stress and Anxiety, Grief, ADHD, and unwanted coping behaviours.

Supporting individuals, couples, and families seeking to foster unity, stability, and deeply connected bonds in their lives. It's all too common for individuals to become entangled in cycles of shame and blame, especially within intimate relationships.

With my vast experience, I have helped clients in addressing diverse issues such as anger management, ADHD, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, assertiveness, grief, chronic conditions, and disabilities.

Or are you lonely and isolated, burned out or emotionally and physically exhausted? Are you looking to understand yourself on a deeper level? Stressors in our everyday lives, Relationships, Systemic Barriers and Trauma from the past can live in us and manifest as Depression, Anxiety, Physical pain and Insomnia. It is painful and uncertain, and can cause a lack of confidence in how to move forward. Therapy is used to explore these issues and gain lifelong tools to support yourself.

Sometimes all we want is to be heard, to have someone fully present for us. We experience this from family and friends but there is always an underlying judgement or opinion that direct us where we may not want to go. A lot of times talking to a stranger sounds like an intrusive or uncomfortable situation to be in, but I can assure you once you get past the first fearful step, you will learn that it's a form of self care that will stay with you for a lifetime.
