Overwhelmed. Burnt out. Disconnected. You struggle to set and hold healthy boundaries. You feel you have to earn your worth by doing for others. You hold yourself to incredibly high standards and find it difficult to treat yourself with grace and trust. Exploring the therapy process and reaching out for a space where you put your own needs first is incredibly challenging, and I congratulate you. Talk therapy is designed to support you in deepening your relationship with yourself in a safe and non-judgmental environment. The therapy journey will explore your patterns, your values, and your tools for navigating challenging seasons.

Facing a major loss challenges us to our core. We can be left feeling overwhelmed and alone, full of grief, sadness, anger or fear. I will walk alongside you on your journey through grief. Together we can rediscover how to enjoy life again, grow your reserves and resilience. By being with and experiencing our grief - be it a death, miscarriage, infertility, aging, separation/divorce - we can ultimately find joy and appreciation for our lives and relationships again.

Often in life we can move on ‘auto pilot’ and be surprised when we feel hijacked by things such as anxiety, anger, substance abuse, depression, etc. I will aid you in processing your reactions and learn how to better identify and communicate your emotions. We are all carrying so much on our backs. Be it childhood experiences, trauma, anxiety, work or school stress, insecurities, self doubt and so much more. I will support you in finding the skills to tease apart, challenge, and cope with these issues.

Grief. It's a word heavy with emotion that often brings up images of loss, sadness, and heartache. But grief is so much more than that. It's a rollercoaster of emotions that is inevitable at some point in life. When we think of grief, we often think of the loss of a loved one. While undoubtedly a significant kind of it, grief can take many forms. It can be the witnessing of another's pain, loss of a job, a relationship, a dream unrealized. It can be the end of an era, the closing of a chapter, the diagnosis of life-altering illness, and the shattering of expectations. No matter the form it takes, grief often feels deeply isolating.

Through the art-making process, I support individuals to discover resources of inner strength and empowerment, manage stress, problem-solve, improve their self-esteem, enhance interpersonal relationships as well as develop insights and self-awareness through reflections of their artwork. I hold space for individuals to create a language to express challenging emotions that are otherwise difficult to be expressed through words. In addition to traditional art materials, sessions may include grounding techniques for relaxation, the use of natural elements and invitations to work on your goals.

Life transitions and expectations can be overwhelming. Maybe you are wearing many hats and feel like you've lost yourself balancing everyone else's needs. Or perhaps the losses you have faced are so heavy that it feels almost impossible to take the next step. I have over a decade of experience supporting individuals and families from diverse backgrounds who face challenges with relationships, grief or parenting. My experience includes supporting first and second-generation immigrants and mixed-raced individuals from a cross-cultural lens that addresses Identity, belonging, and intergenerational healing.

With 15 years of experience as the head counsellor at The Michener Institute, I offer professional support for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and family challenges. My use of both Gestalt Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gives me a wide range of options for support for both individual and couples. Gestalt focuses on the 'here and now,' our body experiences and childhood patterns and helps us be present in our relationships. CBT has been rigorously tested in over 1000 studies, and is a therapy that supports depression, attention deficit disorder (ADD), panic and anxiety, phobias and stress.
