We are fucked up around the topic of sexuality. This limits our connection and desire. Did you lack positive role models to mentor you with displays of affection and healthy conflict management? I am committed to helping you to find balance, peace & pleasure. DESIRE discrepancy is our speciality. This is a most misunderstood and painful issue that leaves partners feeling broken and undesired. There is a lot more to this issue, especially in heterosexual relationships so let's explore it. Let proper Sex Ed replace the many myths about relationship and sexuality that limit us. Let's get unfucked up.

Welcome! I am currently accepting new clients for February 2025! I offer individual and couples therapy both in-person and online. I want to thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Here is a little bit about my beliefs and therapeutic approach. I believe that everyone has the potential for growth and an innate ability to make desired changes in their lives. Sometimes, that ability can become obscured or hindered by trauma, anxiety, or stress. I am here to help you rediscover that ability, move through your pain, and walk alongside you on your path of self-healing.

As a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist my goal is to help you gain insight to how your emotions influence your thought process. By helping you identify issues that are causing you conflict we then can work on formulating solutions. With this understanding we then can focus on changing maladaptive behaviours to more positive ones. The goal of CBT is to teach you strategies so that you can move forward in your life. CBT is effective with adults and children. We all have the ability to change things in our lives, we just need to take the first steps.

Seeking out a therapist is a courageous step toward positive change, especially when you are feeling overwhelmed. So already I'm cheering for you about that! I specialize in working with individuals who have faced significant challenges and understand the profound impact these experiences can have on thoughts and behaviors. I firmly hold that unless you feel safe, you can't fully be curious about why you do, feel, and think as you do. If you don't have a safe person to turn to, I'm here for you!

The individuals and families that I support, experience feelings of overwhelm and find themselves ‘stuck’ in patterns or strategies that hinder their well being. Avoidance, anger outbursts, intense worrying, controlling tendencies, substance use, and disconnecting from ourselves and the people we care for, are just some of the strategies we use to cope with life’s stress. We can become deeply stuck in these patterns even at the expense of our own well-being, and/or inter-personal relationships. Luckily, our brains and bodies are capable of great change. Restoring ourselves to a more optimal way of being, is possible.

I became passionate about social work after practicing family law for many years and watching the court system fail parents and children experiencing separation and divorce. I have since completed my MSW to focus on therapeutic and collaborative co-parenting work, mediation, and help individuals navigate high-conflict separation and divorce, and healthy parenting post-divorce. I also enjoy helping individuals with anxiety, perfectionism, self-esteem, academic and career issues. Moreover, I have experience in supporting parents with their children’s learning disabilities, school, and issues with peers.

Sometimes life hurts and we are uncertain how to move forward. Trauma, grief, life transitions, difficult relationships, and past experiences often leave us searching for healing and hope. We don’t want to do this work alone, and yet we don’t always know where to turn. In the therapeutic relationship you will be heard and seen. In my practice I use a holistic, person-centred approach where together we will build a respectful relationship that allows you to gain new skills, acquire knowledge that helps bring about change, and work toward your personal goals.

The individuals I work with are often overextended with life responsibilities/stressors, leaving minimal time for personal fulfillment. An overarching worry over things beyond their control, focus on ‘to-do’ lists, rumination over past behaviour and about the future, leads folks to burnout, poor sleep quality, procrastination and avoidance. Anxiety and depression can also lead to feeling undervalued, lack boundaries with others, ineffective communication, feeling unheard, and low self-esteem. Difficult life transitions, including navigating an injury, illness or chronic pain are theme's within my practice.
