I'm dedicated to supporting you in the challenges and changes of midlife and beyond. Midlife can feel like a kind of reckoning. You contend with lost or changed relationships, difficult events, illnesses and changes in your body and mind. This season can spur a desire to return to the essence of things and root down into what matters, and to reflect on how you were raised and how it impacts you now. You may experience burnout, depression, anxiety or chronic pain. As a caregiver, you may tend to put others’ needs before your own, which can be rewarding but comes at a cost.

I started my practice to create a space that is healing, safe, and accepting to help you become more resilient, empowered, and content. Life is often difficult, confusing, and disappointing, but you are much more than your bad days, bad months or bad years. I believe that healing comes from recognizing your true self, living authentically, and balancing acceptance and change. With consistency and commitment, it is possible to break out of patterns that no longer serve a purpose. I offer a judgment-free space where I aim to support you in living the life you want, with peace and conviction. Your goals for yourself are within reach.

If you heard the call and made it here, then you are on the right path. It’s never too late to ‘start’ your journey, or continue by finding tools along the way to help you move forward on your path. My curiosity started when I was a child and grew into the work and education I completed over the past three decades. My passion is to work with people who know there is something they need to do to become more attuned with themselves, but need companionship on how to get there.

I practice trauma-informed therapy. I believe non-judgmental acceptance & validation are key in supporting a client on their unique healing journey. Problems have causes that need to be examined. There are reasons we react and respond the way we do. I work with trauma and anxiety disorders including trauma from past abuse; grief and loss; challenges with family dynamics; and life transitions (divorce, empty nest, retirement). I do NOT work with addictions NOR in a consulting capacity for legal or employment requirements (eg: documentation for child custody issues, high conflict separation/divorce, or WCB/other benefit claims).

Women's Issues Counsellors
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
