Medavie Blue Cross Therapists in Dartmouth, NS
I work with individuals and couples. I also offer supervision to counsellors registering with the NSCCT. If you decide to connect with me, I will work to build a strong counselling relationship and support you in making changes in your life. My approach starts from the perspective that people are made up of three parts: body, mind and emotional self. These parts interact with one another and together create our lived experience. I work in a comprehensive way that considers the functionality in each of these areas to move towards integration, health, freedom and agency.

At times life can become complicated by stress and adversity which is difficult to navigate on our own. My counselling philosophy is grounded in the knowledge that everyone has strengths and resources that can help them thrive and all of us need genuine caring relationships to live our best lives. Unfortunately, the challenges in our lives can cause us to lose sight of our strengths and strain key relationships leaving us feeling lost, confused and overwhelmed. At these times, counselling can help to explore these thoughts and feelings, identify meaningful solutions and restore hope and overall resilience.

You might be experiencing distress from trauma or challenging life events or you’re finding it hard to cope. Maybe communication in your relationships has broken down leaving you more alone than connected. Here’s where I can help.

Together, we then create a plan that fits you, to help you regain a sense of hope, balance and vitality in life. Life is too short to be lived in significant distress, and sometimes we need a helping hand.

Are you feeling stuck, even though on the outside things seem “fine”? Many people I work with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and motivated—but feel overwhelmed by patterns they can’t quite break. Whether it’s difficulty in relationships, emotional reactivity, persistent anxiety or old wounds that continue to surface, therapy offers a space to explore, understand, and shift these patterns. In our work together, we’ll get curious about the parts of you that are trying to cope the best way they know how—and help them find new, more effective ways to support you.

My work centers on helping individuals reconnect with their Core Self—the part of us that is inherently whole, connected, creative, and balanced. Over time, experiences such as trauma, attachment wounds, childhood development, or societal pressures can disrupt this inner knowing. In response, we adapt and develop patterns that may distance us from our authentic selves, often leading to further struggle. Despite our best efforts, we can feel disconnected, moving through life at a pace that makes it difficult to access and embody our own wisdom.
