It is never too late for meaningful change in your life. Feeling anxious or overwhelmed? Stuck in negative thought patterns? Worried about your child's development? Suffering from PTSD, anxiety or nearing a separation? I provide short-term counselling to explore solutions to specific problems and long-term therapy to address historical issues and persistent patterns. I work collaboratively with you to build an individualized treatment plan based on your current needs, motivations and strengths. I utilize CBT, EMDR, DBT, EFT and other empirically-based interventions to help you overcome your symptoms and any related distress.
My core specialties include trauma/PTSD, depression/anxiety, relationships, and addictions. I have over 12 years of accumulated specialized training in these areas and other wide-ranging issues. My goal is to help my clients cultivate new behaviours/choices and create a happier and healthier life that includes strong relationships with self and others.
I am a mother of two beautiful boys and I genuinely want to make a difference in our beautiful province. If I am not available to support you, I have a large team of 30+ counsellors with varying specialties ready to step in. Book a few 20 min consultation with myself or one of our therapists today.
