Let's work together to help you develop the steps and path you need to transform your lifestyle and achieve your personal goals. Through the hypnotic process you can develop insight and explore and learn your mind + body connections for a truly lasting change. Put into to practice what you've learned through the guided imagery. Help yourself be the best you can be!

Are you feeling tired, overwhelmed, and struggling to move forward? Do you want to feel more connected with your mind and body? Most of us want this balance but are unclear how or where to start... this is where a skilled and certified EMDR therapist can help you heal to move forward. Together we collaborate to guide you towards your goals.

By becoming a therapist, I hoped to bring much-needed compassion to the field and better serve individuals who are suffering, and often painfully misunderstood. In relationship restoration, we frequently start by addressing the pain that both the acting out individual and the partner feel as a result of the shock, deception, breach of trust, and hopelessness. My role is to help you move forward in a way that is meaningful and supported.

I'm Raven, a culturally attuned therapist and Life Coach with over twelve years of experience. As a clinician, I utilize my extensive experience to help you compassionately connect with your inner joy. I offer a whole-person, strengths-based, holistic approach that goes beyond the therapy model and recognizes the uniqueness of every person. I love to blend principles of psychodynamic therapy and coaching to help you live your best life. I help you get clear on what you want to do and what's holding you back. Together we create the map to get you to your ideal life.

When people are considering therapy, often the hardest step is making a first phone call. I have deep respect for the process of choosing a therapist and value the steps one must undertake in order to find the perfect fit. My style of working is relational and psychodynamically informed and I believe that each therapeutic relationship is unique. This means that we will tailor your treatment to fit your needs and interests. The best outcomes are achieved when you feel comfortable with the person you are working with and together we will create a space that feels safe.

People are best treated in a relaxed, comfortable environment with a knowledgeable and caring therapist. I am a well-trained, experienced psychotherapist with a prior background in nursing. My nursing training has given me not only a dedication to caring for patients but also a working knowledge of different medical problems and how they can seriously disrupt a person's life. In treating my patients, I have expertise and training in a number of different approaches, including individual, family, and couples therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These skills help my patients maximize their strengths.

.Welcome! I am truly passionate about collaborating with you as we explore ways to find your authentic self and heal all of the old wounds and patterns that have stood or continue to stand in the way of your personal success as an individual, couple or family member. Are you and/or your current relationship challenged with issues of infidelity/"sexting"/virtual flirting via social networks or have you entered into the shame/blame game causing you and your partner to drift apart?

Therapy is a journey that promotes growth, insight, new perspectives, confidence, and healing. I approach therapy with a deep sense of compassion and empathy. In my work, I have had the honor of helping many individuals find their way through grief and loss, difficult life transitions, low self-esteem, and various mental health issues. I am passionate about providing a safe, non-judgmental, and welcoming space where we will develop a plan that is unique to your strengths and needs, as well as discovering what is holding you back from growing and thriving.

Choosing a psychotherapist, relationship counselor, or coach is an important decision. You want someone you can relate to, someone you can trust, who is good at what they do, and will be able to help you. How do you know if you've picked the right person? I believe good therapy, counseling, or coaching begins with the first contact. During our first conversation, I'm interested in who you are, what you need, and how I can help. Whatever your struggle, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to respond. I'd like to get to know you.

My goal as an integrated heath care professional is to treat the whole body; so patients can experience changes in sensation, perception, thought or behavior corresponding to his or their mental or physical health needs. My success in treating chronic illness is founded in the idea that all therapeutic relationships are a partnership of patient and clinician in restoring the body to health. The use of Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy can address a variety of physical and mental health issues in a shorter time; with longer lasting effects.

Issues at home, work, in relationships or within yourself can feel overwhelming--like roadblocks with no roadmap. I provide a trusted space for adults, couples and adolescents to work through difficulties that might leave you feeling stressed, confused, isolated anxious, angry, sad, or alone. We examine immediate stresses and past experiences that may be impacting your present life. I listen very carefully and supportively-not just for what may be holding you back--but also for what may help you thrive. As a licensed psychoanalyst with extensive broadcasting experience, I also specialize in social/performance anxiety issues.

As a solution-focused, mindfulness based cognitive/behavioral psychologist, I work by collaborating with you to identify problem areas and devise manageable strategies in the service of gradual, stepwise change. Our work looks at perceptions, thoughts, feelings and behavior and helps you alter and manage these. The fact that you are indeed able to make change becomes surprisingly clear to you, and it is done at a pace that feels workable.

Our lives can be full of transitions and hardships that can be overwhelming and challenging for a person struggling with depression, anxiety, stressful relationships or just feeling stuck. As a therapist I not only offer a space to explore your past, present and what you would like to achieve in the future but also a place to learn to develop a greater sense of self. As your therapist my main objective is to help you achieve your goals and be the most authentic "you". I specialize in working with adults who are seeking support for depression, life transitions, stress management, relationship/family difficulties, and past trauma.

We are a team of highly experienced, genuinely compassionate, holistically trained professional psychotherapists who want to help you navigate the difficulties you face in life. If you are an individual, couple or a family, struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues or perhaps you are looking to make a change or find more fulfillment in life, we can help you.

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.

Do you feel perpetually stuck in any aspect of your life? Do you feel overburdened and stressed over past consequences? Are you struggling to find your true self? One of the most courageous things you can do is identify yourself, know who you are, what you believe in and where you want to go. Psychotherapy can help guide you along the path towards self-fulfillment and discovery. My goal is to provide a safe, and judgment-free space where we work collaboratively on topics related to life transitions, anger, stress, coping mechanism, self-doubt, and relationship issues.

I assist individuals who are experiencing depression, anxiety and difficulty coping with life stressors including relationship issues, chronic stress and chronic illness. I work to enhance client's self-awareness and sense of self to promote meaningful relationships and connections with others. I am skilled at assisting couples with achieving better communication, increasing trust, and enhancing intimacy.

Therapy is not just a space to work out problems, it is also a haven as one celebrates achievements and integrates change. It is your space to be authentically you with a journey partner in a relationship that supports you. My perspective is unique and informed by a dynamic background that includes lessons from a great teacher, life, as well as from serving in various roles in employment fields. I have experience working with individuals and groups in a manner that respects differences, honors experiences, and welcomes exploration.

Asking for help is not easy, so congratulations on taking the first step toward self-improvement and fulfillment. Through our partnership, I hope to help you better understand yourself in terms of how you function in your personal relationships, and help you see patterns that may be causing distress. My style is one that primarily focuses on empathy and insight. Though talking about issues that come up in therapy may initially be difficult, with time you will notice you are seeing yourself in a new light, and that you are able to accomplish positive change.
