There are times in our life when it feels like nothing we do makes a difference. Problems become complicated by issues associated with our struggles managing mood or anxiety, feelings of shame, or coping with grief and loss. Situations such as transitions related to life stages, conflict or loss of connection in significant relationships, or changes in mental well being can be distressing and overwhelming. I work hard to build collaborative alliances with clients to co-construct different narratives about our relationship with problems, and develop alternative personal stories of strength, growth and recovery.

I love working with kids, adolescents, parents, families as well as adults with: symptoms of trauma, depression, anxiety, attachment issues, self harm, suicidal ideation, parent coaching, and children’s stress behaviours (e.g. anger, melt downs/explosive behaviours, fears, shame, guilt, separation anxiety, worries, isolation). I offer a supportive, non-judgemental, non-pathological, and mindful environment. My hope is that you may come to experience internal alignment, equilibrium, connection to emotional wisdom, trust within, presence, and freedom from old patterns.

Starting therapy can be scary, and I commend you for taking that first big step in searching for a therapist. I describe my approach as very gentle initially, and I work alongside you to determine goals and hopes for therapy. I strive to provide a safe, empathetic, and neutral space for you to freely discuss your thoughts, feelings, emotions, etc. I aim to instil hope, and guide you to a place in which you feel you are heading towards the person you are aiming to be. Together we will move at a pace that feels comfortable to you, and I both welcome and encourage ongoing feedback to ensure you are getting what you need from sessions.

It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

At times life can be overwhelming with stressors from family, work, relationships and personal issues coming up to interfere with our present contentment and peace. Seeking out a therapist to talk with about it can be scary and add to the stress however, it can also help to provide insight and support along with learning healthy coping strategies in order for life to feel more manageable. Sometimes, the goal is not to fix it or change it but to not feel as alone and have an outside neutral person to help offer a space to start to work through things and heal and grow.

Seeking help and support feels scary and it takes courage to reach out. I would like to help you embrace your inherent resilience and expand your inner strength. Existing in a place of distress is mentally exhausting, emotionally taxing and physically draining. There is another way, and you have it within you to discover there is more to life than merely existing.

When I was young, I wanted to be a writer. I went into journalism and that’s where I figured out why I was so obsessed with stories. True stories heal us. I have spent the last 30 years, both personally and professionally, in the field of addiction. I became increasingly sad as I witnessed the suffering that goes along with substance abuse and behavioural addictions. I learned as a volunteer and mentor that helping people uncover their true story also creates healing. So, I went to Yorkville University and obtained a master’s degree in counselling psychology.

Perhaps you've suffered great loss or you're wanting more from your relationships. Maybe you're dealing with anxiety or you're re-evaluating your life and are on the brink of a major transition. Or you're worried about your teen and the direction they're headed. A lot of us get weighed down by one thing after another. Whatever it is, if you're feeling unsure or unsettled and you're seeking a greater sense of ease, allow me to support you.
