I am Trauma informed, Somatic informed and certified in Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Narrative Therapy and Sonotherapy.
I am passionate about serving others that suffer from addictive behaviours, anxiety and traumatic experiences that prevent one from living their best life. You are not the problem, the problem is the problem. So many of us including myself have lived too long with life doing us instead of us doing life. I offer affordable online counselling and I am excepting new clients at this time. I also see clients in person at Thrive Downtown Counselling Clinic. I have linked my availability at Thrive Clinic in my Website section.

I use a present focused, experiential approach, that includes acceptance of what we are facing and mindful exploration of our experience.
Do you value relationships and feel you would like to be more confident in yourself? Our challenges can be our greatest teachers but they may feel overwhelming when we try to face them alone, especially if we have suffered through trauma. If you have emotional injuries in need of healing or a relationship you wish to bring closer, by exploring these issues we may uncover hidden resources and new possibilities. We may work through unconscious beliefs or hidden traumas along the way. By supporting ourselves in new ways, we can free ourselves from old fears and become more of who we truly are.

I hold values of trust, compassion and acceptance, and will integrate various therapeutic perspectives to meet your concerns, explore coping strategies, and find meaningful change.
Sometimes we need support navigating the complexities of life. As individuals, we experience these complexities in unique ways, often feeling alone. You may be navigating grief, anxiety, anger, fear, trauma, relational concerns, transitions, self-worth or feeling overwhelmed. My goal is to cultivate a trusting, accepting relationship that holds space for your unique story, a space where you can feel seen, accepted, supported, and valued.

It takes courage to seek and begin therapy, and I value and respect that. I am passionate about working with all people, however they choose to identify themselves. I work with adults, young to old. I consider each individual as a "world unto themself"; I work with your goals, your spark, your way. My goal is to help you find the tools to move towards what you most want. I'm on your side. I draw from therapies such as solution focused, trauma based, CBT and ACT. Possibility lies in the present - what we do, how we choose to act, alone and with others - this is the arena of change.

Are you looking for a COUPLES/Relationship Counselling or Individual? I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) who is passionate about helping others heal through connection. To facilitate the healing journey, we must first feel safe enough to let someone see us in our vulnerability. Through empathy, radical acceptance, and experiential exercises, I help clients shift their old beliefs, reframe them and make space for creating new ones.

I draw from several evidence-based modalities such as ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), narrative therapy, CBT, and mindfulness, to name a few.
Have you been feeling lately like life shouldn’t be so hard? Do you ever feel like your upbringing didn’t equip you with the coping and communication skills you need to create the kind of life you want? Are you walking on eggshells in your relationships because you don’t know how to address the big underlying issues? Do you feel overwhelmed – even physically – in the face of your daily tasks and stressors? You are not alone. And I can help.

I’ve trained and worked in a number of modalities including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gestalt, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Mindfulness for Addiction Therapy.
Major life events can take a toll on our mental health. Even positive transitions can leave us feeling anxious, depressed and alone. My great passion is empowering clients, who include women, children, youth, individuals and families, with the knowledge and skillset to endure difficult passages in life to arrive at a place feeling secure and fulfilled. I have experience and have completed supervised practicums in Substance Use Services, Adult, Children, Youth and Family Counselling, and Career Counselling and Program Development.

I draw upon several well known approaches in my work, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotionally-Focussed Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness Techniques.
If you’re here, then you’ve probably run into a very difficult time in life, and you’re looking for ways to get through it. A metaphor I find helpful is the idea of life as a journey, with lots of good terrain, but also lots of tough terrain. The tough terrain can represent many different struggles: relationship difficulties, stress, depression, anxiety, family challenges, loss… you name it. A counsellor can be thought of as a local guide who is familiar with the tough terrain, and has experience helping people navigate the most difficult parts of their journey.

I use evidence-based tools of acceptance, mindfulness, and emotion-focused therapy to help people change and live more fully.
It’s human to have unhelpful thoughts, experience uncomfortable emotions, and get stuck in painful patterns that don’t align with our values. My clients struggle with a wide spectrum of issues. Ultimately, people are extremely resilient and have often tried many different approaches to reduce their distress by the time I meet them. In other words, they're stuck. In our work together, you'll learn how to better navigate feelings of stuckness and identify the path to living your more meaningful life. I am trained in both individual and couples therapy, as relationships are often a source of profound distress for us.

Many types of therapy can be effective in treating trauma and related symptoms such as EMDR, CBT/DBT, ACT, CPT, IFS, ART, and other methods.
Do strong emotions and memories impact how you live? Unresolved trauma and chronic stress can create negative thoughts and feelings and negatively impact our overall well-being. We may experience anxiety/depression, addiction, chronic stress, etc. Coping mechanisms may become ineffective or even harmful over time. Are you new to therapy - or have been to therapy before - call to discuss how trauma therapy may help.

I practice Compassion-Focused therapy, Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Acceptance and Commitment therapy.
Change is inevitable, though rarely comfortable. We have the ability to be incredibly adaptive beings, but it can be so difficult. I believe we can improve our capacity to manage life's challenges through increased awareness of our relationships with and reactions to change. Counselling can help uncover the conditions for healing and help you learn how to create or maintain these conditions in your life. I specialize in helping individuals and families recover from the impacts of trauma, including grief, anger, anxiety, isolation, chronic pain or physical illness, relational conflict, and more.

I use a trauma informed, integrative mind-body approach, with specialized training in Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I empower women and young adults who are feeling stressed, worried and “not good enough” to step into the life and self-worth they deserve! You might feel constrained by low self-worth, too many “shoulds”, perfectionism or people pleasing. You might be feeling stuck in relationship patterns that are painful or unsatisfying. You might struggle to set boundaries with others. Maybe you struggle with guilt, shame, anxiety, loneliness, sadness, or feeling like you don't "belong". Together we'll identify and work with your thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and inner "parts" to help you better understand yourself with compassion.
