I work from a stance of cultural humility and adopt a humanist perspective, using a highly collaborative/relational and strengths based approach. In our work together you can expect that we will discuss and draw from CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), Narrative and Acceptance and Commitment based theories as well as others as appropriate. If you are seeking assistance to develop emotional regulation skills, overcome illness, injury or personal trauma history, I encourage you to be in touch. I work with youth and adults ages 13 and older.

Hello fellow human! Have you analyzed your “problems” and gone back in your past to see where things went “wrong”? Have you judged yourself for not feeling satisfied with your life and wanting more? Do you feel trapped by your feelings and the emotions of others? How would you feel if you could have emotional freedom? What choices would you make and what purpose would you step into if you knew how to sit with your uncomfortable emotions? I too have analyzed every "negative" feeling and fused to the idea that I am simply an "anxious person". Well, no more of that!

At Ottawa Valley Wellness (formerly Valley Wellness & Nutrition), we offer psychotherapy and holistic nutrition services to support burnt-out working professionals in managing stress and anxiety through an integrative approach that blends therapeutic modalities with nutrition science. We focus on working professionals aged 20-65, especially those in high-stress, trauma-exposed work environments.

Imagine feeling trapped in a whirlpool of anxiety, unable to pause and take a breath. Or envision a racing mind that won’t slow down enough to focus on the strategies that could help. Conventional therapies might have all the right answers, but the body refuses to cooperate. You know WHAT to do, but your body and brain won't listen! Whether it’s extreme anxiety, hypervigilance, or attention deficit problems, challenges often lie in a constant battle between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous systems that leave many people caught in an unproductive cycle.

In today's world there are no shortage of issues, problems or challenges that are commonly experienced on any given day by countless folks. What is unique is how we each identify, experience and cope with or resolve them. It is our philosophy that all human beings are inherently resilient and were never meant to solely cope or deal with many of the issues, problems or challenges that they often take on alone. Sometimes you can't articulate what you are going through, don't know exactly what you need or want and don't know where to start or what to do and that is ok.
