Are you struggling to make sense of your feelings due to a major life transition, past trauma, relationship issues, or not understanding yourself better? Also, if you have noticed yourself dissociating a lot but not sure what to do about it and have lost your usual sense of capacity to cope with reoccurring unwanted thoughts and behaviours, or even having trouble falling or staying asleep because of stress, then you have come to a right place. I offer therapy services online and in person. You will feel listened to, validated, and get nonjudgmental space to talk, get psychoeducation & tools to improve your perspective towards life.

I believe we all have the capacity to heal and learn how to live a life worth living, despite challenging and painful experiences in our lives. I believe the coping strategies we develop can start creating problems if we don’t address the underlying cause. Therapy is a safe space to explore, identify, address and resolve these issues, often creating transformational growth. With over 30 years’ experience working with, and treating clients with a variety of mental health, addictions and trauma related issues, I have delivered therapy through individual and group work, and I am passionate about both approaches.

Accepting new clients. Reaching out for help can be overwhelming and especially difficult when you are looking for support to understand, process, and heal from challenging life experiences. You may find yourself feeling sadness, shame, or worry following experiences that are tough to talk about, resulting in numbness or isolation. You may be struggling to connect with yourself and others. Maybe you want to better understand these events and how they are impacting your life now. You may feel increasingly ready to move through and beyond the difficulties you face, to embrace what feels more like the real you.

You’re exhausted, trying to balance multiple responsibilities – work, relationship, family, social life, self-care, health– and running from a deep sense of "not enough" or unworthiness. You have a mind that rarely quiets, always planning, worrying, with insecure thoughts, or fear of letting others down. On the outside, you’re managing fine, but behind the mask that you put on for others, you’re struggling. Relaxing and feeling at peace seems wildly out of reach. Alternatively, you may be feeling disconnected or fighting more in your relationship. The busyness of life has taken over and it's been hard to make each other a priority.

Being human is just damn HARD sometimes. Struggling with a traumatic event, mental health and/ or addictions can feel like drowning in unseen waves; the waves of grief, anxiety, anger, fear, trauma, relational concerns, transitions, or self-worth. We try to soothe ourselves by acting out on ourselves, or others or engaging in behaviours that harm us and those we love. You can begin the process of rebuilding and reclaiming by slowly and bravely embracing your wounds, all while staying afloat. Together, we will begin to anticipate those waves coming and not get pulled under but rather negotiate them with resounding courage.
