Therapists in T1J

Hi there! I am a registered social worker and have a Masters of Social Work (clinical specialization) degree. I have nine years of clinical work with individuals in mental health settings. I also have a graduate certificate in adult addiction and mental health. I am a strengths-based therapist who truly believes we all do the best we can with what we have and what we know. Sometimes, we just need a little support navigating life and I'd be honoured to journey with you.

I have worked as a Mental Health Therapist for over 20 years. Many of the people I work with have been impacted by trauma and as someone who has also been impacted by trauma, I am fascinated by how humans heal from trauma. Providing counselling using somatic experiencing techniques, teaching about trauma and helping people to understand their own biology in the face of trauma is my passion. I have experience in working with a wide variety of issues including borderline personality disorder, depression, eating disorders, anxiety to name a few. I offer evening and weekend hours.

Disappointments are unavoidable. A world built to connect us might feel engineered to separate, distract, and alienate us from ourselves, our relationships, passions, and humanity. Reconnecting with our authentic selves is the antidote to disappointment and the path to health, and happiness. When we reconnect with the world within ourselves, we also reconnect with the world around us. On this journey, everyone deserves an ally: I help disappointed people eliminate silent frustrations, find purpose and inspiration to live meaningful lives.

I specialize in treating trauma, depression and anxiety (including pre- and post-natal), and stress. I have a special interest in working with medical professionals and public safety personnel. All of my experience has led me to believe that we are all capable of healing, but that in order to move in that direction, we need a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment to be able to explore current and past difficulties and how our minds and bodies respond.

Daytime appointments. Are you a parent looking for support for your child or teen? Is their anxiety, anger, experience with separation, grief or self-esteem eating away at them or making home life hard? Do they seem overwhelmed or shut down and not themselves? You may find yourself thinking about it all the time, researching tools to try, asking for advice from friends and family, wondering if what you're doing is enough, and even whether they are going to be able to move past this. If this is what you are feeling you are not alone. Many parents feel overwhelmed, worry about their kids, and wish to make their troubles go away.
