Deep inside of you is the awareness of what you need to heal. I help facilitate and unearth that inner wisdom with individuals, couples, and groups. Together, we'll practice tuning into your own unique embodied awareness. From there, we can translate that increased clarity into tangible action that aligns with your greatest, most authentic wellbeing. Our bodies exist within larger systems — many of which can disconnect us from ourselves and each other. We'll look together at the messages we've internalized from these systems in order to unearth the ones that are no longer helpful.

I consult with adults who are successful in many ways, but feel unsatisfied with some aspect of their life. They choose to participate in therapy because they want to feel better, cope more effectively, improve their relationships and their overall quality of life. While the circumstances that lead someone to make an appointment varies, there are a number of symptoms that many people identify with, including: • Anxiety • Low mood • Feeling bad about yourself • Relationships are frustrating and disappointing. • Feeling caught in past traumatic or upsetting experiences • Struggling with ineffective coping.

Everyday, I witness how trauma, self-doubt, and unresolved problematic patterns create barriers to connection and prevent growth. Unmet needs and unspoken emotions profoundly shape how we relate to ourselves and others, and they often leave us feeling hurt, lonely, and misunderstood. In my practice, we'll make space for every part of you, especially those in need of support, compassion, and validation. Together, we'll explore and embrace each one, allowing you to better understand who you are and what you need. Moreover, this deepened self-awareness and self-acceptance will help you cultivate closer intimate relationships

Therapy should be about achieving lasting change that improves your quality of life. I work with individuals and couples. You may be looking for a therapist to talk to, but more importantly, you are looking for someone who can help you achieve change. Whether you are experiencing relationship issues, emotional burnout, anxiety, depression, or life challenges, the way forward is through change. My approach is empathetic while being goal-oriented. I won't sugar-coat it but I will support you to help you achieve your goals. I aim to go beyond talk therapy by implementing interventions that address what is holding you back.

When was the last time you experienced harmony with your core principles? At Hartwell Counselling, I provide a compassionate and transformative therapy rooted in evidence-based practices such as EMDR. EMDR which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and its the gold standard for treating and processing trauma. EMDR reduces trauma symptoms in a shorter time frame than the traditional talk therapy. Many clients have reported a reduction of traumatic symptoms after the initial few sessions of EMDR. EMDR is not a magic cure for trauma but it might produce some symptoms relief.
