Survivors of childhood trauma, individuals struggling in unhealthy relationships, emergency responders or individuals battling physical or mental illness all have the potential to develop a powerful mindset. A powerful mindset is about overcoming adversity and challenges that life presents. It’s about possessing, understanding, and being able to successfully use a set of psychological coping skills that allow you to be more effective, adaptive, and persistent while pursuing your goals. The foundation and quality of your life will be shaped by how how well you handle challenges and how open you are to improvement.

Imagine feeling it in your bones that change is possible. How you relate to yourself, others, and life - can change. I want to work with people who are courageous and fearful and unsure. When we have limiting stories of ourselves it can be helpful to have someone else, a professional, hear us - see us- and want to show another way. I will not look away from your shadow, and I do not fear trauma or big emotions. You are so much more than what you've done, your body, and your worst thoughts.

I believe that you should do you. I also think that you should do the least anxious, least depressed, least traumatized and least isolated version of you that you can do. Reaching out for counselling can be really nerve-racking. It is also hard to admit that there is something in your life that might not be working quite right. My hopes are that you can make the changes that you want to make, and I'm hoping that I can support you to do it.

If you arrived here with stress, anxiety, loneliness, depression, fear, anger, old trauma... and possibly the intense issues of the recent 3 years magnify the sense that it will never end. Struggling to fix unsuccessfully, the pain and confusion feels stuck. Pain requires attention that heals it, not the kind that perpetuates it. We can do lot on our own, but we don't heal alone. When no courage is felt, is exactly the time to reach for acceptance and support. Connection is basic human instinct. Now is your time. Make the call you deeply long to.

I've been practicing since 1995 & I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor & Marriage & Family Therapist. However, I am now only accepting individual clients 18+. It's clear to me that we can all struggle, even if we are successful in other areas of our lives. Life can be unpredictable & the stress & demands of everyday life, work & relationships can take its toll. As stressors build, you may find yourself struggling with anxiety, mood, eating, body image issues or turning to addictive behaviours. You may also find that unresolved grief or past trauma keeps seeping into your daily life & especially when you least want or expect it.
