I have special interests in ADHD, Depression and Anxiety and my goal is to reach the underlying reasons and thought processes that cause attentional difficulties, impulsivity, anger outbursts, excessive worry, depression and communication issues.
With a down to earth style, and through a trauma informed and strength based lens, I use individualized techniques from many therapies to build emotion efficacy, so you can learn healthy skills for coping with stress, establish boundaries to build stronger bonds with the most important people in your life and experience solace and joy each and every day.

You experience intense emotions and don’t always know why. You alternate between
feeling flooded with feelings of anger or sadness and feeling completely cut off.
Sometimes your emotions come with intense reactions followed by feelings of shame
for how you responded. Things from the past are catching up to you and not allowing you to be the best version of yourself. You might not have found the tools to face it as a couple or individually. As a therapist, I don’t believe that we are broken and in need of fixing; we are hurt and in need of care.

Together, we will work through issues, worries, crisis's, life events, or the challenges of long term conditions, as a team.
Together we will aim to develop positive and lasting change. I find that expense can be difficult and this is why I try to offer a low cost service of $70 per session. Hopefully this will make psychotherapy accessible to those who need that extra support.

Anxiety Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
