The difficulties that you are now experiencing are survival strategies that got you to today.

Sometimes you don't know what's wrong ... you just know something is wrong. Behaviours and thoughts that were helpful may have become unhelpful and harmful. Maybe you are tired of feeling unloveable, disconnected, incompetent, alone, anxious or depressed. I work with adults who want to better cope and who are ready to be heard and validated, with caring, respect and compassion.

Are you struggling with anxiety? Trauma? Feeling stuck? Struggling in a relationship? Feeling overwhelmed? Tired of the constant negative chatter in your head? Life can be challenging at times. Imagine if you felt calm, confident, resourceful and happy! I have over 20 years of experience helping clients just like you regain their lives.

You might find it difficult to manage or control your emotions. You might feel overly sensitive or even numb. You might experience overwhelming thoughts, that are often negative or you might even have intrusive thoughts about your past. Often these concerns can be severe and related to traumatic events that can raise questions for you, about how to start feeling better. Traumatic experiences can keep us trapped in the past and cycling in the memories, emotions, and thoughts about ourselves and those around us. My passion is to work with individuals from various backgrounds who are experiencing significant mental health challenges.
