Clarity is my hope for each person I see, whether we use Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, Narrative approaches, EMDR, Mindfulness, yoga, polyvagal theory, or creative arts expression. Regardless if your struggle is with depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, or trauma, clarity means a better awareness and understanding of yourself in the current situation. Knowing yourself allows you to make choices best for you, consciously. It can be challenging to unravel and understand all of the often conflicting messages we hear and give ourselves, but it is crucial. This is the work I will support and guide you in.

In our fast changing world, it is hard for all of us to maintain our well-being while constantly being hit by profound waves of instability, be it pandemic, loss of loved ones, divorce, financial crisis, life transitions or relationship issues. As tender beings, such situations deeply affect our sense of security and belonging and lead us to isolation, sense of inadequacy, unworthiness, shame, anger, anxiety and feeling lost. It usually takes us years, trying all our solutions before we realize that healing is not a one-person process.

Are you feeling weighed down by expectations and judgements not your own? Trapped in circular thoughts and disconnected from your body? You may have difficulty staying in the present moment. Perhaps you are feeling unexplained discomfort, tension, or other unpleasant sensations in your body. Missing out on the happy and fulfilling life you thought you would have? It's tiring trying to figure it out on your own, only to fall into the same patterns.
