We all experience circumstances in our lives that can be challenging to manage, and I understand that choosing therapy can be a vulnerable and difficult choice. But I want you to know that is also an empowering choice, and I’m here to support you with that.

I use Hypnotherapy to help my clients achieve inner mental peace and resilience, as well as help women overcome personal challenges such as weight loss, body image issues, situational or performance anxiety, low self confidence and low self esteem. Sometimes this is related past trauma that is still affecting you today, and in those cases EMDR or Regression Hypnosis can help you get unblocked and move on with your life. We can then work together to help you build stronger self esteem and a greater sense of self worth while achieving your lifestyle goals and taking into consideration your spiritual nature as well.

My focus of my practice is that of relationship counselling. Relationship to self, others and the world is extremely important for healthy living. When something gets in the way of good relationship then sometimes it is really important to have a third parties insight into what might be going wrong and how to make changes to overcome what might be standing in the way. I see children, teens, individuals, couples, and families. We offer: anger management, domestic violence, relapse prevention, weight loss, anxiety, depression, conflict resolution, trauma resolution and Christian counselling programs.

All the empathy and therapy I offer helps you answer one key weight loss question: "How will this time be different and work long-term?" I return all communications in one day.
I lost 100lbs and currently kept it off for eight years (I started August 15, 2012). I remember at my heaviest weight, I wanted to talk to someone who had been there, done that & understood I so badly wanted to change and my frustration at not changing. I wanted someone who could quiet my mind when it worried about my weight and help me gain control of my body and life. I know what it's like to start losing weight, only to abandon the effort shortly thereafter. If you repeat that pattern and put your health and quality of life at risk, then you likely feel that there are issues that need to be addressed psychologically - I can help!
