Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs last and focus on others? Do you question if life should feel somehow better? You are not alone here. My approach is client-focused, collaborative and optimistic, I view each person as an individual within a family system and can help with difficulties impacting clients biologically, psychologically, socially and spiritually. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term challenges for your mind and body. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a better life.
I offer a custom approach for each client I work with. My specializations are trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, anxiety and depression, and relationships. I have specialized training in addictions, Emotion Focused Therapy and Gottman Method of Couples Therapy. I incorporate somatic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and a variety of clinical interventions.
Helping people live a better life is my passion and life's work. It might mean learning to set boundaries, working through a loss, relationship change or life transition, or changing a pattern of behaviour that is keeping you stuck. My goal is to help you feel better so you can live happier. Contact me for a free consultation today.
