I believe people have an inner wisdom that, given the right support, can be accessed in the pursuit of healing. I value collaboration, authenticity, humour, and adventure, all of which I bring to my sessions. I am passionate about helping people heal from trauma and reconnect with life. People often come to me to work on, amongst other things, boundary setting, improving relationships, exploring life and career interests, connecting with values and identities, and feeling more confident managing stress and anxiety. I believe in the value of exploring how our pasts influence us in the present and how we want to move forward.

When we make the choice to do therapeutic work, it is a significant step in creating change in our lives. It offers the opportunity to heal and become more fully the person we choose to be. The therapeutic process encourages us to be present, compassionate, and open to new experiences. The hope of clarity, possibility of creating positive changes, making decisions, and feeling more hopeful about life. I am a gentle, supportive, heartfelt, and engaged therapist. I work from a stance of compassion with the understanding that through compassion for self and others we have the capacity to create change in our life.

I will work hard during our time together to listen, to understand, and to help.

I feel like I was born in the construction trades. At a young age I worked at height (Rope Access), in remote areas, and in all environments. I wanted the skills to respond to any emergency at any time, this desire lead me to pre-hospital emergency medicine (EMR), wilderness first-aid, and rope rescue training. My work and personal experiences from this time left me feeling isolated, dreading human interactions, and losing my love of learning and mastering new skills. It was this experience that compelled me to address my own mental health and further lead me to complete a Diploma in Transpersonal Counselling Psychology.

As a parent, it can feel like your heart is breaking watching your child face challenges beyond their control. Whether it is struggles with emotions, behaviors, or navigating everyday life, seeing your child struggle at school, home, and with peers can be overwhelming. You might feel at a loss as they withdraw, act out, or face difficulties in relationships or at school. However, change and healing is possible. With the right support, you, your child, and your family can find healing, build resilience, and discover new ways to move forward with confidence and connection.

Individual clients come to see me when there is recognition of loss of control of their moods and behaviors. Difficulty with boundaries, honesty and building secure attachments create a lonely and isolated life. Depression and anxiety can be so overwhelming and we often don't want to feel like a burden to friends or family so we keep it to ourselves. I help my clients find themselves and find hope. I work with couples who are experiencing breakdowns in communication, loss of trust due to infidelity or other secrets and help them navigate the way through the repair process.

Are you searching for a way to grow? Do you feel stuck or feel an overwhelming disconnection? My clients often struggle with anxiety, self-worth, and how they show up in their relationships as their unconscious material and past woundedness are creating challenges in their ways of relating. They are often seeking more sovereignty and empowerment, while exploring their style of attachment and building relational intelligence. They often seek to deepen their spiritual connection and feel a sense of belonging, while dropping into more peace and rootedness in their daily living.
