Self Esteem Therapists in N7G

At certain times in our lives, we may feel like we are stuck. We struggle with maintaining our relationships at home or work, have difficulty meeting deadlines, or are unable to deal with the emotions of what is happening in the world. Counselling is a way to work through these issues. Here are a few other reasons why individuals and couples may seek counselling: reduced emotional and physical connection due to strained communication and increased conflict, infidelity, workplace conflict/bullying, recent separation or divorce, and an inability to find a suitable partner. These situations can cause immense pain.

I believe that it is important to treat clients holistically, looking at the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual strengths and challenges that clients face. It is imperative to build a trusting relationship with my clients and to work collaboratively to help them reach their unique goals.

Accepting new clients! Individual and couples counselling. I believe that every person has the ability to heal from past and current pain and it has been my great privilege to be a part of people's healing for over 20 years. I am a Registered Psychotherapist that has worked with clients experiencing a variety of struggles including: trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, relationship issues, life transitions and stress management. I offer an integrative and tailored approach that meets each person's individual needs.

Relationships are at the core of feeling love and belonging. However, when our relationships are functioning poorly we can experience anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, or anger. In this space, we will explore how early life relationships shaped your attachment, communication, and conflict patterns to connect them to the impact they are having in your current life. From there, we can develop healthy new patterns. I also work with couples on their communication, boundaries, intimacy, meeting needs, and trust. Together you will learn to communicate safely and predictably and co-create your ideal intimate life.

Your life reality does not match the vision you had and now you are feeling down, somewhat anxious, and maybe unsettled. You may be feeling like you want to make a move towards accomplishing your goals but you reel stuck. Your might be in conflict with family, friends, and co-workers but you are certainly in conflict with yourself. Your inner critic (the voice we all have in our heads) has an overpowering voice which is resulting in you not making a move and simply put - not feeling happy. You want more but you're not sure how to get it and you want to feel that core happiness you've heard others talk about.

Every person experiences hardships, loss, and trauma throughout the course of their life. This may impact our ability to function in our day-to-day. Throughout my career and education, I have developed a passion for helping those experiencing grief and loss. Grief is a deeply personal and unique experience that occurs after we experience a loss. I will strive to help you understand and explore your feelings while processing the loss that you have experienced or are experiencing.

Are you thinking of addressing childhood trauma or focusing on your mental health? Are you, or someone you care for, struggling with heightened anxiety or a diminished sense of life satisfaction? I extend an invitation to a warm, welcoming, and non-judgment space where we can collaboratively explore past and present concerns that may be impeding your progress towards achieving personal goals and leading the life you desire.

Accepting new clients. Do you feel stuck and are unsure about what you want in life? Or perhaps you know what you want but are afraid to take the steps you need to take because you are struggling with your own inner self confidence and self worth. Do you place too much emphasis on what other people think about you and not enough emphasis on what you think about yourself? You may be struggling with symptoms of depression and anxiety as a result of the stressors you are experiencing in life and need some clarity about what you really want and how to get there.

Are you stuck? Stuck in grief, anxiety or depression? Maybe you have persistent health anxiety because of longstanding or chronic illness. You might have been there for a loved one going through a health crisis- and that takes its toll, too. Or, perhaps you are experiencing burnout- due to your job or relationship. You might be facing an uncertain life transition. Perhaps you are trying to move through trauma and its aftereffects- and those can often be calmative if you work in healthcare or are a first responder. You want to feel better, happier, brighter in your life. You want to have energy, joy and contentment.

Life will bring challenges and difficult times causing confusion, fear, anxiety, depression…and numbness.

Some events and relationships may leave deeper, traumatic wounds. Sometimes it just feels like it is all ‘too much’. Whatever challenge brings you here, together we can work with and process these feelings.

Many people have found themselves in the exact place you now find yourself – wondering if they should seek the guidance of a professional counsellor for personal, marital or family problems. Here are some of their uncomfortable self-reflections: “Tensions always hover over my relationship with my partner.” “I want to be a better parent.” “I do not look forward to going to work anymore.” “My partner and I keep getting stuck when we try to talk about our problems.” “I want to enjoy being a parent, but often I do not.” “I want to feel happiness and gratitude for my life and the people in it, but I cannot get there.”
