My name is Sonia and I am a Registered Counselling Therapist (Can.) in beautiful Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. I support children, youth, adults, couples and families with a variety of challenges and experiences as they work towards better mental health and healthier relationships. Working from a client-centred lens, I believe that each person is an expert in their own lives, and that the power to heal comes from within. I will hold an inviting, safe and non-judgemental space for you to explore your experiences, cultivating a therapeutic relationship built on genuineness, unconditional positive regard, and empathic understanding.
I can support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, personality disorder, grief & loss, divorce, co-parenting challenges, behaviour issues, stress, low self-esteem, parenting, pre & post natal anxiety and depression, trauma, rejection, and interpersonal relationship challenges.
I warmly welcome military members, veterans, and their families to my practice. As both a military child and wife, I understand the challenges of having a loved one who serves and the difficulty finding helping professionals who can relate to the impact the military lifestyle has on the entire family.

When working with adults, I begin by using a client centred approach and then incorporate additional modalities such as CBT, DBT, Narrative, Art, Sandtray and IFS to meet each clients individual needs. When working with children, I will typically use non-directive play therapy, theraplay, sandtray and art to support them in communicating and working through their experiences.
