I can help you identify and meet your missing emotional needs so that you can heal and stay mentally balanced; moving you on from states such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, or addiction.
I offer a 60 minute session as it is important to me that you feel supported and heard without being rushed. If you have PTSD, or any upsetting memories, there is no need for you to divulge any details at all. You can expect to leave feeling emotionally much calmer, and more in control than you have perhaps felt in a long time.

Trauma-Informed Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor.
Are you ready to connect with yourself and heal from within? It can be hard to know what to expect from therapy and it can seem as though the hill that you are climbing is so steep and you have no idea how therapy can change how you feel about yourself and your world. I felt the same many years ago. But, for me, therapy changed everything. We are made up of years of experiences; some sad, some happy, some testing, some traumatic, and some even devastating. There is a reason for everything that we do, think, and feel. We are informed by our experiences.

Stressed? Anxious? Generally feeling low? Talking can change your life. It is a bold statement but when you have the right person that is listening, it can be a real game changer.

You’ve spent years second-guessing yourself, and now you’re trying to remember who you were before all the self-doubt.
Maybe you've been made to feel like you're the problem - too sensitive, too emotional, too much. You second guess yourself constantly and feel responsible for everyone else’s wellbeing. Over time, that can take a real toll on your self-worth and leave you carrying a level of anxiety that’s hard to switch off, even when things are "fine."
My clients are insightful and caring, but often stuck in survival mode. I offer a calm, trauma-informed space where you can explore what’s really going on beneath all the coping.

Addiction Counsellors
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
