If you feel sad, stressed, anxious or depressed, no purpose, I can help.

Some also want to get off some medications and don't know how to do it without having awful withdrawal symptoms. Maybe they are also struggling with memory issues, weight issues, CPTSD, hormonal issues, and other issues affecting their brain and mental health.

My ideal clients range in age from adolescents through adulthood, including couples and families. They may have a past history of trauma or grief, or perhaps they are presently struggling with symptoms of ADHD, life changes, or a breakdown of a key relationship. They may be feeling completely overwhelmed and unsure where to go next. They will be open to trying new ideas to help them on the path to feeling better, but will not be worried about talking to me when certain strategies that do not work for them, as they will know it is best that we use techniques that they are comfortable with and will use.

I draw on the commonalities that exist between counselling approaches, and am aligned with anti-oppression perspectives. Through a combination of deeply introspective, pragmatic, and somatic practices, I help clients find greater self-compassion, security in their relationships, and grow towards deeper purpose and fulfillment in their lives. I'm a good fit for working through issues related to queerness, addiction, loss, shame, or physical health. If you have little or no coverage, I am confident that we can make something work.

When you are looking for a therapist, one of the most important things aside from training and approaches used is the personality fit! Over the years as a Psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some!
