There are times in a person's life when they reach an interior impasse. For any number of reasons, the realization gradually dawns on them that their inner freedom has been compromised and there is no clear understanding why. Often, this takes place in the context of relationship, whether with their spouse, family, friends or colleagues. While a family physician, social worker or another health professional can and do help, sometimes what is also needed is the help of a psychotherapist trained and certified in the art and science of talk therapy, the bedrock of all psychotherapy models. It can be the key to change and inner freedom.

Now Accepting New Clients for Virtual Grief & Trauma Therapy - Are you seeking compassionate support on your journey through grief, loss, and trauma? I am a compassionate Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, here to guide you through the healing process, helping you emerge stronger, happier, and healthier. Grief doesn't just happen in our hearts and minds—it sends ripples across our routines and relationships, disrupting our daily lives. Suddenly, the simplest tasks feel like Herculean feats, and the world around us loses its rhythm. I can help you find balance again.

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.

Are you tired of feeling held back by self-criticism, perfectionism, low self-esteem, or anxiety? Are you frequently overthinking, worried, or emotionally exhausted? You deserve to live a more fulfilling life free from these obstacles. You have the power to take control and heal, and it starts by facing your pain head-on. With my expertise as a therapist specializing in helping individuals like yourself, I can guide you towards a new approach to managing your emotions and finding peace within yourself.

As your therapist, I guide you toward healing through the art of conversation. Many therapists consider themselves to be just that: therapists. For me, therapy is a form of art. I believe healing takes place through feeling real, human connection, which means taking time to build an authentic, trusting relationship with each other. I work with you to explore emotional patterns, thoughts, and feelings, so you can step into the world as your most authentic, peaceful self. I strive to offer a peaceful environment where we can slow down and unpack difficult experiences together.
