On the outside, you look like you have it all together, but truth is, on the inside you're a mess. You used to pride yourself on being able to balance a successful career, kids and a healthy relationship. But now, you feel burnt out and anxious; your worries are always rolling around in your mind. Lately, you've been more irritable and frustrated toward your kids and spouse, which makes you feel terrible. Worse yet, you've completely forgotten about yourself. It feels like you are drowning under the weight of your problems and you are desperate to get free. You never imagined yourself seeing a therapist, but you know you need help.

Life can be hard. My purpose is to help you reach your goals, experience more happiness, and feel greater satisfaction with your life. For some, this may include getting to a place of peace and healing. My work over the last 15 years has included working with victims of crime, especially those who have experienced domestic and sexualized violence. I use a trauma-informed approach which means if you have experienced trauma, you can find comfort in knowing that I can recognize its symptoms and acknowledge the impact it has on your life. I will give you a space where you can share your biggest challenges or your darkest moments.

Sure we can talk about disorders and diagnoses, I'm definitely qualified to do that, but for most of us that's not what's needed. Even someone with a formal diagnosis should not be defined by that label. We are all human, we all suffer, we all want to live a life full of meaning and joy. My goal is to get you unstuck from where you are and not only feel better but to thrive! My focus is not on reducing symptoms it's on helping you discover the painful places in your life (now or in the past) that hold you back from living a life of vitality. Throughout this process we explore and identify personal values as a guide for behaviour.

You’re exhausted and grumpy. You thought having a kid would make your family complete, but now all you and your partner talk about are diapers and schedules, and who is (or isn’t) taking care of the kids. It’s hard to hold onto the joy everyone tells us our kids should bring. You worry that things will never get better, and that you and your partner will just grow further and further apart. Even worse, you’re starting to resent your partner, your kid, and everyone else that makes it look so easy to have the perfect little family. It’s so lonely feeling like the only one who is struggling with life and family these days.

I work with couples to help them deepen their bond and strengthen their relationship. At times, couples are stuck in the same fight over and over again. This often happens when needs are unmet, the smallest hint of distance and criticism can lead to ineffective ways of communicating. Partners end up trying to prove the other wrong, blaming, pushing away, turning away or shutting out. When bids for connection are missed, feelings of resentment, fear and abandonment can build. A pattern of miscommunication emerges.

Online Counsellors
Online counselling is a good solution for people who do not have access to well-qualified clinical professionals in their area or who live remotely or abroad. We also refer to it as Teletherapy, online therapy or skype therapy: in short, it's simply conducting a clinical therapy session using a video or phone as the means of communicating.

It's an excellent solution for those who are immobile or find it more convenient to conduct therapy in the privacy of their own home. Or are agoraphobic (fearful of leaving their home), but still want counselling.

If you're looking for online counselling in B4A or for a B4A online therapist these professionals provide online therapy, skype therapy and video treatment.

How can I tell if a therapist is right for me?
Therapists in B4A are able to work with a wide range of issues.

For example, if you're seeking a marriage counsellor in B4A you'll find that most therapists are trained in marriage counselling or couples counselling in B4A and couples therapy. And they welcome families for family counselling in B4A or family therapy in B4A.
