Therapists in T3K

I believe in approaching mental health holistically and experientially. I work from a neurobiological and trauma-informed perspective. I utilize body-centred approaches, emotion-focused approaches, and mindfulness in my work with clients. I believe in helping clients develop self-awareness and a deeper understanding of the more unconscious feelings and beliefs that influence thoughts and behaviours. In doing this, we are able to address the root of the issue to create lasting change.

I collaborate with clients as they learn and apply skills, challenge themselves, and help them achieve a more authentic way of being. I would be honoured to facilitate the process of your self discovery and healing. My values of integrity, empathy, and acceptance are mirrored in my work with clients. I believe prioritizing client preferences and exploring their experiences foster a safe and validating environment. My diversified personal and professional experiences have me well equipped to manage a range of clientele concerns. I cater my services to those with varying cultural backgrounds, age, sexual orientation, etc.

Are you finding it difficult to function in your everyday life? Are you overwhelmed? Depressed? or Anxious? Have you experienced trauma or abuse? Do you lack confidence? Do you struggle in relationships, performing at work, or coping with stress? Have you lost perspective and identity? Do you wonder if God cares? Does God even exist? What's the purpose of life? How can you find happiness? What about peace? Do you need hope and new ways to cope? As a counsellor, my goal is to help you discover who you are, empower you, build confidence, and hope for the future.

Your relationship is great but you struggle in the bedroom. You (or your partner) have no desire anymore. When you do try it, it’s awkward and unfulfilling. Maybe you experience pain, or feel disconnected. You don’t know how to talk about it, and when you try it turns into a fight or disappointment. You are good friends (and parents) but you feel more like roommates than lovers. You can't remember the last time sex was easy and fun. Or maybe it's the other way around, sex is great, but you can't stop fighting. Or maybe it's both. I'd love to help. I love working with couples who feel they are stuck. Let's get you unstuck.

The situations that people face in their past and present have an impact on their current state and goals. I believe in meeting the client where they are at in their journey of exploration and working together collaboratively to work towards their goals. I view clients as capable of taking the lead in their therapeutic process with my role being that of a guide and supporter. This collaborative approach is rooted in my person-centered practice which is strength based and built on the foundation of a strong therapeutic alliance.

Watered Heart Counselling was formed to help individuals live an optimal life. We believe habits create the condition of your heart. Out of the heart flows the issues of life! When a heart is broken, dull, hardened, scolded, numb or dysfunctional not only does it interrupt the flow of life, but it can suffocate and cut off one’s ability to function. Here at watered heart, we believe life is not the inclusion of everything or the avoidance of anything. Living a balanced and optimal life is one’s ability to adapt to life’s challenges while heading to a destination. Life is a means to an end…and the end should always be intentional.

Welcome to Sunburst Counselling. What is trauma? Trauma is linked to a memory of an event that sticks within your mind and body. It can result from falling off of a bike, a car accident, sexual assault, other forms of abuse, critical workplace incidents or anything at all that happens to you that was out of your control. Unresolved trauma can result in anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD, C-PTSD or chronic pain, all of which can greatly impact your ability to function. When you lose your ability to function, you may experience a decrease in self-esteem, self-worth and self-confidence all of which will impact your core sense of self.

Hello and welcome to taking your first step in seeking support & coaching. I am passionate about locking arms with clients who are ready to take their health and lives to a higher level. Typically my clients are in transition and have a desire to live their best life possible and are willing to take the action required to get there. You are motivated for self improvement, willing to tackle the issues you know ( and that we will discover) are holding you back from living your full potential. You see the value in uncovering your true self (flaws and all) and understand that this will lead you to personal greatness & fulfillment.

The resiliency of individuals who have experienced trauma in their childhood humbles me. When speaking with clients with childhood trauma, clients often say that this is the first time that they are talking about their traumatic experience. The reason that they are choosing to address the trauma now is because it continues to get in the way and they want to create change in order to move forward with family, relationships, work, or quality of life. I can help process the trauma so that moving forward is possible.

My approach to counselling is for families and individuals to have successful relationships, creating the life they want to live that is full of love, joy and peace. I believe that each person has the ability to create changes within themselves, focusing on the ''NOW'' with strategies that include healing from the ''THEN.'' This will help build towards planning a desired future. For every question there is an answer, and to every problem a solution. I maintain confidentiality, hope and trust. I am here to help you move forward.
