Are you struggling to break your bad habits and keep healthy relationships? Maybe you're repeating unhelpful behaviors no matter how hard you try to change. Are you dealing with the consequences of impulsive decisions, losing control, or substance use? Often, these actions are the ways you learned to cope with the stresses of life to protect yourself or overcome challenges during difficult periods. When these coping mechanisms show up in life and relationships, they frequently contribute to conflict and pain. I help individual and couples better understand themselves and make lasting change with solo or marriage counselling.
I specialize in helping teens and adults struggling with issues around anger management, relationship issues, addictions or depression to develop greater self-awareness and self-compassion, and feel more connected with themselves and others. Together, we can identify some of your patterns and explore what is getting in the way of your goals and values.
I believe change happens in a respectful, compassionate, and collaborative relationship. By developing insight into yourself and your relationships, you can learn to be in control of your emotions, respond with intention, and feel joy and connection in your life and relationships. Call or email me today to book a free consultation.
