I specialize in attachment, trauma (including childhood trauma), and the integration of spirituality and psychology when it’s appropriate.
Have you suffered trauma and wonder if it’s possible to heal? Are you anxious and worried, struggling to cope? Do you push people away before they hurt you? Or chase after someone, terrified to lose them? Do you question your worth, sure that you will never be enough? Have you ever wondered “is there hope for me”? YES! There is hope! It is possible to heal, to learn how to have healthier relationships, to feel good about yourself instead of feeling bad. You can learn how to manage emotions so that anxiety doesn’t stop you from doing things you want to do. You CAN gain more control of your life and emotions and feel more confident!

I hold compassion for all you have been through and where you are now. I approach therapy as a collaboration between you and I, where you are respected and honoured and your strengths are highlighted. We work at a safe pace in line with your needs. I recognize how hard it is to be a human in this world and the support required to get through challenging and transitional times, as well as the possibility for resilient growth and recovery. I am an avid lover of music, art and dance, believing that creativity is a part of being alive. I work to integrate this into my practice, along with a spiritual and intuitive sense.

Everyone said that parenthood would be the most wonderful time. I feel like something is off, why don't I feel wonderful? Why do I feel sad or scared about this new baby? Why do I feel all alone? How come I'm having a hard time conceiving when everyone makes it look so easy? How come I lost my baby and all of my friends and family around me got to have their babies? All of these experiences can feel so isolating and you are looking for support in coping with the heaviness of it all.

If you're feeling disconnected, distracted, and detached from your life, it may be time to look at why. Why can't I connect, why am I not able to just "get over" my past, or why does it all feel so meaningless? Maybe there are other questions, like “what am I doing with my life” or “who do I want to be?”. It’s okay to take time that's just for you, to look at your life and see both the big picture and explore the often overlooked details. With the right support, you can feel more present, connected, and in control of your life.

My approach to counseling is to integrate ideas from psychology, philosophy, spirituality and the wisdom traditions of the past.
In uncertain times the need for us to take responsibility for our own lives is essential. To experience being fully alive, we can't simply accept a destiny that other people or our culture want for us. We have to write our own story and walk our own path. My goal is to deepen your self-awareness and cultivate an acceptance of things as they are, not as we wish them to be, to bring light into the dark shadows of your life and restore your sense of who you are. We will seek to find the depth of your hidden potential and quiet the voices of self-doubt so you can ride the waves of human experience with grace and purpose.

Having gone through similar challenges myself, I weave together the lessons from my own lived experiences with my background in psychology, social work, and spirituality to create opportunities for respite, healing, and growth for those facing hardship and uncertainty in their life journey.
Sometimes , the journey of life can be a rough one. You feel lost, defeated, alone, and full of fear. But you haven’t given up. There’s a part of you that tells you that somehow there’s still hope, that you just need a helping hand.

This immersive journey involved intensive study and application of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and Meditation, Spirituality, and Trauma-Informed practices.
Permanent recovery stems from learning to be who you needed to be when you were younger. As a holistic therapist, I help you understand the emotional experiences you're having to make sense of where they originated. We'll work together to identify the parts of yourself that need attention. Embracing all aspects of you, we'll learn that there are no bad parts, only parts that require your care and focus. When we identify the people-pleasing, chaotic, perfectionist, critical, and self-destructive parts, we can learn to be in a relationship with them. This allows us to access the adult part of ourselves to live with peace and ease.

What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?

Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?

There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?

Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?

​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
