“We are born in relationship, we are wounded in relationship, and we can be healed in relationship.” — Harville Hendrix. Psychotherapy is a professional relationship between a care seeker (client) and a caregiver (therapist). The primary focus of this relationship is to serve the client’s interests and well-being. I endeavour to create this healing relationship by providing C.A.R.E. The model involves C- Connection/Conversations/Compassion, A- Attunement /Attention, R- Respect, and E – Empathy. My non-anxious presence in therapy helps my care-seekers to entrust themselves to the therapeutic/healing process.

We seek therapy because at some fundamental level, we are not where we were hoping to be in life. Sometimes it’s an unexpected turn in the wrong direction, or perhaps, we never knew which way to go in the first place. Whatever the case may be, we’re all hoping to get to the same place. A place where life is exciting yet stable, where we can connect and love without fear, work with purpose, and live healthily. Getting there is certainly not easy, but we can all conquer adversity far more efficiently with a bit of help. This is what I’m here for: To join your team, and help you get to where you'd like to be.

When wounds happen in relationship, so does healing. Due to this, a deep connection between client and therapist lies at the heart of effective therapy. I strive to make meaningful connections with clients that prioritize empowerment, kindness, empathy, curiosity and sometimes even humour.

I specialize in helping helpers - because as a medical professional or caregiver you're wonderful at caring for others but get caught in the trap of being too busy to care for yourself. You put the needs of others above your own and get lost trying to re-establish balance. I am also passionate about helping those grieving. Despite recognizing the natural process of grief, it can feel confusing, isolating, and shocking making it difficult to navigate through life and the wide range of emotions. At times, these two intersect when caregivers become bereaved and it can feel impossible to navigate life moving forward.
