Adulting is hard! Thinking Couch is a place to sit, to take a breath, and to begin to create YOU the way YOU want to be. It takes time and it takes work, however, I will sit with you, collaborate with you, and help you create the fulfilling world you deserve.

As a social worker and counsellor for many years I have walked with people as they have journeyed through grief and loss, processed trauma, and learned to think differently about anxiety and depression.

Life can feel lonely and overwhelming in the midst of struggle. Shame can keep us stuck, isolated, and away from connection. If you are struggling and navigating a challenge, conflict, change, decision, or loss, there is hope and relief when we can connect with an attuned other. Your story and the adaptive ways that you have used to survive painful experiences will be honoured. Your body is wise and your emotions are powerful messengers that provide much insight. My hope for you is that through our work together, you will reconnect with your authentic Self and your intuitive wisdom.

I enjoy working with all persons; however, I have found that working with men between the ages of 18-65 to be some of my most fulfilling work. From my experience, many men struggle in silence with their mental health and often find it difficult to discuss what is bothering them. I aim to help these men open up the doors to their experiences and help navigate with them the inner workings of what is distressing. When we have built a safe connection vulnerable sharing can begin. It beings me tremendous joy to watch the transformation of my client when they begin to accept themselves for who they are!

Trying to cope with the pressures and stresses of life leaves us anxious, depressed, and disconnected from ourselves and others. Many of us fall into self-sabotaging behaviours or repeat unhealthy relationships. Many of us face the limitations of psychiatric treatment and are forced to carry the weight and stigma of diagnosis. Many of us struggle simply to maintain our creativity and our sense of self against overwhelming pressures to conform or perform. We all need the chance to check in and process our feelings and reactions, to work through the struggles of our personal history, and find new and creative ways to move forward.

Perhaps, you’ve heard yourself say to yourself: • I’ve struggled with anxiety all my life. • I feel so overwhelmed with my emotions, I don't know what to do. • I’m tired of over-thinking. • I struggle with chronic pain, and I'm so tired of it. • I have so much built up anger. • I can see myself reacting the exact same way my parents did to me, and I want to break the cycle. You are not alone if you find yourself feeling this way. These are common painful human experiences. The truth is that we are not meant to carry pain, and I want to help carry it with you.
