I support adults & adolescents with relationship issues, anxiety & stress, depression, chronic pain & illness, life transitions, grief & loss, work-life imbalance, & other existential challenges faced by one while creating a meaningful life.
We all face ups and downs in life. While we do our best & can pick ourselves up in most cases, sometimes we get stuck & the solutions we devise don't work. During these times we need someone to guide us through a process that can help us move past these issues & give us valuable insights into ourselves.

Life has a way of challenging us in ways that can stop even the strongest of us in our tracks. Increased stress, sudden life changes, anxiety, unresolved trauma.... many things can trigger disruptive behaviours and emotions that throw us off-base, damage our health and relationships, or simply hold us back. If your mental or emotional well-being, your relationships with others or with yourself, or your ability to deal with problems is out of balance – whatever the issue or stumbling block, a safe therapeutic relationship can help you return to, or develop a greater sense of ease and well-being.

Are you longing for a loving life partnership, but find yourself recurrently single or caught in unhappy relationship patterns? I specialize in Dating, Relationship, and Love Coaching. Maybe it’s the case that: you’re not getting asked on dates but wish a man would find you and sweep you off your feet; you always seem to attract the “wrong” men when what you really want is someone who cherishes you; the men you like don’t seem to like (or call) you back and you just want someone to choose you first. If you are done with endless online dating and want to attract real love in real life, then you need to break free from past patterns.

I work with men and couples on many issues including: men's issues, relationship challenges, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, stress, addictions, spirituality and more.
If you are a guy and apprehensive about counselling, welcome! You are not alone. Many people find counselling to be an anxiety producing experience but for many men it can be really uncomfortable. Do you suffer in silence? Feel shame? Have anger that is expressed in unhealthy ways? Experience relationship issues? Stressed out, depressed or anxious? If you want to work through your issues, whatever they are, it is possible to put them behind you. If YOU are willing to work on YOU I am committed to journeying with you to work towards the goals that you would like to achieve.

I refer to additional outside support if appropriate and maintain client confidentiality during and after our therapeutic relationship.
I am a Certified Expressive Arts Therapist, a professional member of the International/ Canadian Expressive Arts Therapy Associations. I facilitate healing by bringing together body-mind sensation, psychological life, imagination, and intuition using integrative, multimodal arts processes for personal and transformation. I believe that when people accept themselves just as they are, they can change; imagination, creativity and intuition will give them the capacity to reach down into the depths of the psyche, the spirit, the soul, and the body, transform and be resilient from his suffering.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. Whether you're struggling with relationship issues, having trouble coping with difficult emotions, or wish to feel more connected to yourself or your life, together we can explore what’s contributing to your struggles and find a path forward. I often work with young adults and adults to identify and understand the origins of their patterns, increase their comfort with emotions, and treat themselves with more kindness. I see emotions as valuable sources of information that point us to your needs and current/past experiences that may need processing - rather than problems to fix or get rid of.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
