I specialize in mental health counselling, stress management, grief counselling, relationship issues and couples counselling.
Feeling Blue, out of sorts, unable to concentrate, feeling stressed or overwhelmed. Perhaps you are being pulled in many directions. You may be depressed or dealing with an interpersonal problem. Are there times you are feeling irritated and ready to burst at the seams. Are you dealing with a loss in your life or a family member with a substance abuse issue. Counselling can assist you with determining the problem and develop healthy ways of coping and learn self care techniques. Anxiety can appear when we avoid our feelings and stuff them deep inside. Learn how to set healthy boundaries and ask for what we need from others.

I provide mental health counselling for children (ages 7 and up), teenagers, and adults who are facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief , self-esteem issues, and trauma. I believe that people are the experts of themselves but may need some support to see their strengths, grow and make changes. My aim is to offer that support in an comfortable and laid back atmosphere, offering a safe space. This can look different for every person - from playing games with kiddos, to talking, to processing trauma, to practicing breathing/calming techniques. We'll figure out what works for you, together.

You want your grief to be honoured and seen as valid and important.
I might be the right therapist for you if: The way you eat and the way you think about eating/food/body is taking over your life; you want to make peace with food or free yourself from disordered eating. You want your Queer identity to be affirmed and don’t want to have to educate your therapist on everything Queer or Trans. Your body is in a constant heightened and activated state; survival mode is no longer serving you and you want to feel more calm and at peace with your life.

Counselling can be an important step in finding a way forward through personal challenges. Often an unbiased listener helps to create a better understanding of oneself and the dilemma one faces. Couples counselling supports an understanding concerning values, beliefs and emotions moving toward mutual support of attachment needs.

Grief Counsellors

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
