Hi there, I'm Sarah! I am a master of social work clinician that specializes in providing psychotherapy to children, pre-teens, and teenagers/young adults. I work with all kids over the age of 5 and I absolutely love working with teenagers/young adults. Therapy sessions with me are 100% virtual and I only offer sessions during evenings and weekends so that I can be super flexible with busy school schedules! I currently have no waitlist, so if you are a teenager/young adult or your child is struggling and could use some support from an approachable and skilled therapist, e-mail me today for a quick 15-minute phone consult.

Many of us end up taking a back seat in our own lives because we are so overwhelmed by with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship problems, legal concerns, substance use… and the list could go on. My goal is always to help my clients get back into the drivers seat of their own lives and experiences. While pain is not something we can avoid (although we try really, really hard to!), suffering is something we can do without. I focus on exploring your personal goals and values to identify the type of change needed for you to live a meaningful life.

Life can be confusing and stressful for everyone, but there is no need to endure this alone, and I would be honoured to support you on your journey towards wellness.

Let's talk. Whether it's a big transition in life or a goal that you want to accomplish, having someone to help create the solution can be helpful. I want to come alongside you in your mental health journey and help you identify your goals and how you can make meaningful steps to get there.

Welcome!

I am a Psychotherapist and Social Worker (MSW, RSW) with a passion for supporting people in creating healthy, fulfilling relationships. We are wired for love as human beings. And now a wealth of scientific research on attachment relationships backs this up. This means our closest relationships impact us in significant ways. On one hand, loving relationships are essential for supporting our growth and wellbeing. On the other hand, difficulties in our closest relationships fuel many of our most painful emotional struggles. So relationships hugely impact our health and wellbeing, for better or for worse.

Every single one of us experiences life from a unique lens, which is influenced by the various factors in our day-to-day lives. But sometimes, our lens becomes cloudy, making it feel as though we can’t see which direction we’re going. That's where I come in. My approach to psychotherapy focuses on helping clients gain clarity, overcome barriers, and experience positive transformative change towards mental and physical wellness. This is achieved through collaboratively working with clients and providing them with skills, resources, and a safe space to be their true selves.

Life can present obstacles and challenges that can often feel overwhelming. We can be ‘stuck’ in repetitive cycles of thought and behaviour. Day to day issues we historically could manage can feel more difficult than ever before. Many of us at one time or another can wake up and question how we got to this place in our life. If this sounds like your situation I am glad you are taking first steps to focusing on whatever it is that you feel needs your time and attention. I am here to support you in creating focus, direction and seeing new perspectives on what's important in your life right now.

I know. It's a wild world we live in. There are so many things unknown and so many challenges from your past that might be surfacing. I'm not going to say that I have a clue what you are going through, because I don't. What I do know is that the therapists at SoulScape Services offer services that have helped people shift through intense anxiety and pain. If you are reading this, chances are that you are looking for some relief and a place to call home. If you are looking to find meaning, purpose, and to feel well again, Soulscape is a community of practitioners that support your wellness from a whole-person perspective.

The world is changing, and we can all feel and see it. The value of taking care of our mental health is becoming increasingly important, as we become more aware of our past and as we step into our future together. You may be feeling anxious, depressed, confused, lost, or you may simply not know how to feel or what to feel. You may have difficulty communicating. You may be feeling good but just want to explore yourself or are curious to grow in unique and different ways. Maybe you are having relationship issues, or maybe you want to reconnect to spirituality. These are all wonderful reasons to talk to a counsellor.

The last two years have shown us just how quickly change can occur. This can be overwhelming and leave us feeling stuck or spinning. Its in these moments we may need a little help. If you let me, I can provide that help. In a non-judgemental space, you can learn how to live and grow as a person. I aim to have natural conversations with each client and to provide a safe place to allow them to be themselves unconditionally. Growth takes time, patience, and dedication. I can help you grow, while setting new goals and working to attain them. We are a team and together we can propel you toward the future you want.

Have there been times where you have been experiencing stress, worry, anxiety, depression, and grief? You may have also experienced culture shock, overwhelmingness, and rejection. These experiences can often be physically and mentally exhausting, and there may be times where you felt like quitting. Our journeys can lead us to so many choices, so many dreams, but so many despairs. My goal is to work with you and provide a safe and supportive environment and offer the most effective and helpful mode of therapy to reach your personal growth.
