Often my clients are wanting to explore a personal issue/problem/feeling that won't go away and is starting to affect almost every part of their life. Advice from friends or family isn't helping and nothing else they have tried has worked. They believe there must be a better way to be but somehow they are just stuck. I can help you tackle your issues, get unstuck, and find that better place. Both personally and professionally, I can attest to the power of awareness as a key factor in facilitating a desired change; We can’t find the truth listening to our own voice’s echo. We can find ourselves only in someone’s mirror”(Rumi, n.d)

Do you feel unsettled, worried or stuck? Do you have a sense that you are in a rut, created from doing the same things over and over, and not getting different results? Maybe you feel unsatisfied in your relationships, or that your life lacks meaning? Exploring these dark places alone feels terrifying, but healing comes when you connect with someone you trust. Sometimes the small shifts create a ripple through your life that changes how you see yourself and how you relate to others. When you are not walking the road alone, you feel resourced with a greater capacity for healing and growth.

If you are struggling to cope during these challenging times, reaching out for support is the healthiest thing you can do for yourself. Feeling anxious, overwhelmed or depressed are normal reactions to this uncertain world. Hopelessness, losing motivation or questioning your purpose is tough. You don't have to do it alone! There is a way out and I am here to help. I work with family relationships, work and performance issues, trauma, adoption, couples therapy and individuals with anxiety, depression, addictions and histories of abuse, among others. I offer experiential therapies: art, mind/body, play, & Equine Guided Learning.

The Power of Perception... The greatest area of growth my clients experience from our work together is a new way of seeing and experiencing their lives. I'll help you move from a place of hopelessness, frustration, and fear to clarity and peace. You'll learn the struggle can be your power spot to creating change. Although this can be difficult, discomfort acts as a motivator for change. That is its job. You are at a place where all the possibilities and richness of life are yours to be found. I can help you take your next steps.

I'm here to guide, support, and maybe even share a laugh or two along the way. Let's be honest, if I'm doing my job well, we won't be seeing each other for long!

I support people whose chronic pain or menopause symptoms have taken over their life. Has it been difficult to be heard and to find some relief? Do you wish a professional would take time to really listen and help you build a care team to address the many challenges you are facing? What if counselling could help you better manage both your physical symptoms and the many aspects of your life that are affected by this issue?

Working with anyone ready for change that has been up against feelings of sadness, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, not belonging, career choices or feeling lost. I work to help you empower change, bring insight to possibility and friendship to fear to unlock barriers and beliefs that are keeping you from finding what you want. Having the training as a counsellor, life coach, personal trainer and being a teacher and facilitator my techniques are kept fresh, current and focused. We can see change in as few as four sessions and I am not about keeping you in therapy for any longer than it takes to get you where you want to be.

Is online therapy a good option?

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or province where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
How much does therapy cost?
Some forms of mental health treatment (for example, seeing a psychiatrist, or seeing a psychologist in a government-funded hospital) are free under provincial health plans. Canadians who seek private counseling can typically expect to pay an average of $150 per session, although the actual price generally ranges between $100 and $3200 per session, depending on their location and the type of provider they select. Workplace benefits or private insurance plans often provide an annual counselling allowance, and some therapists offer sliding scale fees to clients who cannot pay full price.
