You've been taught that a man handles it himself. So you have. You go to work, you pay the bills, and nobody around you would guess anything is wrong. Being functional is not the same as being okay. Then something stops working. The habit you promised yourself you'd quit last January. The anger that lands on your kids instead of on the thing you're actually angry about. The marriage where you're both still in the house and neither of you is really there. Handling it alone got you this far. It won't get you the rest of the way. Every man has a limit. You found yours.

Do you spend a lot of time in the past or future, wishing you could have a re-do? Do you think people don't like you because maybe you overshared one night or you sent them a text and just got a 'like'? Do you feel rejected by friends and family by the smallest tone change or cancellation? Are you tired of overthinking and spending too much time 'upstairs'? My clients struggle with some or all of the above and I work with them to understand and work through those thoughts and feelings.

The struggle is real and can keep you stuck, disconnected, lost, or holding onto fears (disguised in many ways) for a very long time! Working together we will begin by healing your past and embracing your future. We will shift to find new perspectives, understanding past patterns, and being curious about your relationships (current and past). We also work together to shift from confusion to clarity, from self-loath to self-respect, from lack to abundance. We find tools to clearly focus on Re-building your new life.

You have taken the first step to take control of your situation and your life. As a professional Psychotherapist I'll help you face the storm through direct and effective counselling methods that are scientific and evidence based.

Despite all the information about mental health and wellbeing, its common to be overwhelmed and lost with our own mental health. Most of us are painfully aware when we aren't in a great place, but may have difficulty fully understanding and, by extension, aren't sure how to proceed and journey through the low time we find ourselves in. Each of you are unique and deserve a customized approach. I invite you into my space to find compassion, insight and clarity. Together we will set goals and a plan for meaningful change.

Emotionally Focused Counsellors
Who is emotionally focused therapy for?
Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.

Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?
People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.

What happens in emotionally focused therapy?
Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.

What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?
EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
