SunLife Therapists in Stittsville, ON
As a person and a counsellor, I believe that everyone, regardless of life circumstances, wants to feel connected and understood. Unfortunately, in today's fast-paced society, often times people do not feel heard or listened to, connected to others, and least of all understood. This being said, I believe that the relationship developed between myself and my client is the most crucial component of counselling. It is my hope that at the end of your sessions, you will develop positive coping strategies while healing unresolved feelings; but above all, that you leave feeling heard, understood and cared for.

These are strange times in which we have found ourselves. Trying to reconnect and re-engage in our "new" world can be overwhelming and exhausting. What were once little worries are now becoming cycling thoughts with no end. We tell ourselves that it's easier to stay on the couch than it is to venture out, call a friend, start that project, or discover a new interest. Perhaps you feel torn? Part of you knows what it wants to see happen in your life and knows what to do to get you there, but another part seems so intent on convincing you that you don't have the motivation or strength to change; you feel so stuck. I know ways to help.

I speak FRENCH - clients I work with have survived traumatic experiences often from childhood and are now ready to begin the work of healing. They may be struggling with symptoms of PTSD, C-PTSD, DID, dissociation and often feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. They may have difficulty trusting others, regulating emotions, or making sense of their past. Many of my clients have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), such as emotional neglect, abuse, or family dysfunction. Some may be survivors of sexual assault, emotional abuse, or interpersonal violence, and carry a deep sense of shame

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or alone in your experience of life?
Do you find that these feelings are affecting your sense of self, your relationships, your work, or your ability to enjoy life?
With all the daily responsibilities of being a student, working professional, parent, partner, or balancing multiple roles, it’s easy to feel stretched thin and disconnected from yourself and the life you’re looking for.
You don’t have to go through this alone. I believe healing and meaningful change are possible, and finding the right support can make all the difference.
