I have over 15 years of experience working for the school community. I offer counselling services for children, youth, adults, elderly, as well as couples and family therapy for a wide range of issues including Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, parenting issues and family conflicts. I provide a non-judgmental safe environment where you can feel comfortable to discuss your personal issues and concerns including any life challenges that you like to discuss. Through my therapy, you will become aware of your experiences, learn techniques to make choices, set reasonable boundaries, and learn to let go of negative thoughts.

I always approach my clients in with an anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, harm reduction framework. What does that mean? It means that I will always ask "what happened to you?" instead of asking "what's wrong with you?". It also means that I will always respect you as the expert in your own life. Finally, it means that I believe that everyone does their very best to survive and thrive each day–even on the days that we can't see any hope. I am here to be with you, even through the darkest of days, and help you find inspiration and hope within yourself.

If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed.

We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

You’re the Black Sheep of the family, who doesn’t fit in anywhere and struggles with loneliness: The Outsider. You are talented and intelligent with ambitious business and/or creative dreams; but due to procrastination fueled by self-sabotage and addictions (e.g., cannabis, pornography, video games), you continually fail to achieve goals. You negatively compare yourself to others, can't forgive yourself for mistakes, feel like a failure, and wish you had the confidence to fulfill your true potential because you are meant for more than the mediocrity that most people settle for. Welcome, it's time to awaken the warrior within!

Life is an ever-shifting sea, where the currents of growth and transformation carry us on a journey of self-discovery. At times, we may find ourselves adrift, uncertain of our shores and longing for a sense of direction. In these moments, therapy can be an anchor, grounding us and helping us navigate the vast ocean of possibilities. Just as a skilled mariner binds a knot that secures a sail, I believe that each person possesses the innate ability to thread together their own unique narrative of healing and transformation. Through the therapeutic process, we can mend the frayed edges of our being, with compassion and resilience.

I believe that all of us carry inner wisdom, which holds the answers we seek. Our bodies carry our stories and our pain for us. Somewhere along the way, we stop listening to the messages sent by our bodies. The space between ‘no longer’ and ‘not yet’ can be thought of as a liminal, ‘in-between’ space. We enter liminal spaces when experiencing loss, life transitions, illness, conflict, and burnout. Liminal spaces do not guarantee control or certainty and can often feel uncomfortable. Yet, these spaces can also feel vulnerable and allow us to discover new ways of relating to ourselves and those around us.
