I believe therapy is a gift that allows one's inner strength to emerge while our personal journey through life's experiences makes us who we are. My own journey has led me to my career as a therapist which allows me the honor and opportunity to work together with my clients to recognize their own strengths and limitations in achieving their goals. All this takes place within a strong, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship that is built on empathy, trust, safety, and compassion. I have a calm, warm, relaxed style and believe in creating a safe space for you where compassion, support, and humour can live.

With an interactive, warm, and accepting approach I have been helping clients find healthy perceptions of themselves. No single approach is the right one for everyone, and so I have been trained in a range of modalities including motivational interviewing, CBT, and REBT.

My mission as a therapist is to serve my clients in whatever fashion they may need. My approach is to have us collaborate in a way to not only help you FEEL better, but to actually BE better. Lets work towards being your ideal self. I pull from many psychotherapy orientations in an integrative way and am always striving to learn more. I incorporate knowledge from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalysis, Client-focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Existential Therapy, and more. In addition, I incorporate knowledge acquired from over a decade of studying psychology. This background includes supervising other therapists.

As a psychotherapist and healer for many years it has been my privilege to offer and provide help and comfort to people in distress. Experience has taught me that we all struggle to recover from the pains of the past, deal with the challenges of the present and the insecurities of the future, in our efforts to live the best lives that we can. This often seems very difficult if not impossible to accomplish alone. A strong and nurturing therapeutic relationship is a powerful and stable foundation for dealing with these challenges to our well-being, especially in these very troubling and uncertain times.

It can be really daunting to start therapy with a new person. Whether it’s the anxiety of opening up to a stranger, or feeling afraid of judgment; starting anew creates a lot of uncertainty and new challenges. No matter what the reasons are, they are completely valid, and if you allow me, I am here to help you every step of the way.

We all go through difficult times in life. We hurt, grieve, feel sad, angry and anxious, we become frustrated, get stuck on something or someone and often do not know how to move on.“The best way out is always through” said the poet Robert Frost and I believe that this is a great metaphor for the process of psychotherapy. It is not easy to face our problems, be vulnerable in front of another person, reveal our fears and anxieties or experience uncomfortable emotions. It takes courage to ask for help and begin therapy and I have tremendous respect for anyone who is willing to do so.

Do you find yourself dwelling on the past? Is your fear of the future holding you back? Are you wrestling with organizational struggles, losing track of tasks, or anger management? I know how crippling that can feel. Together we can navigate these challenges, identifying the inner part of you that wants to succeed, and fostering a sense of control and empowerment. My goal is to provide you with practical tools and a compassionate space to overcome obstacles. This is the Person Centered Approach.
