Stress Therapists in Edmonton, AB
I teach the classic 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) as a group therapy offering.
Everyone has the innate capacity to heal and transform. I see my task as offering a safe, skilled and authentic relational space in which that might occur. I offer a highly individualized and integrative approach to help you bring more balance, resilience, meaning and flourishing into your life - to call forth and nurture your true potential. I have over 15 years of experience in individual, couple and group counselling and have worked with all age groups and with many different mental health issues and challenges. However, I see everyone as completely unique and needing their own particular co-created path to healing.

I help people find healthier ways of coping with life’s stress, change bad habits, and recover from life’s challenges. We'll explore, with curiosity, what purpose your habits might serve or used to serve. Then, from a place of understanding, we can discuss how to meet those same needs in ways that are better for you and your lifestyle now. I gained this experience working for 10-years with people in recovery from trauma, addiction, and mental illness and I believe that change is possible for anyone. But it's not easy to do on your own; I'm here to help.

I have experience working with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, family dynamics, relationship stress, chronic or life-altering illness, infertility, as well as women's reproductive health and pelvic pain.
Beginning to start working through our own personal stress and distress can be overwhelming and intimidating. Working with clients to find new ways of coping, process past experiences and trauma, and establishing healthy boundaries are some of my goals as a therapist, and I aim to provide a safe and comfortable place for that work to happen.

My work experience has mostly been counselling with adults (and seniors) with different mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, work stress, and stress from life issues.
How do you find the best counsellor for you? This is a difficult choice and often being open and communicating with your counsellor will ensure optimal healing. I come from an acceptance of where you are in your journey. I do not believe the goal of counselling is “counselling itself”, but to find a way to move forward in your journey. "To feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health” (Bessel Van der Kolk, 2014).

Imagine the life you desire: a life free from overwhelming distractions and constant stress. Does the piercing sound of your morning alarm fill you with dread? Are you relying on coffee, snacks, or endless social media doom scrolling to muster the energy to face each day? Consider this: embarking on a transformative journey often starts with a single, courageous step. Much like embarking on a thousand-mile journey, counselling is your stepping stone towards a more fulfilling life. It takes immense courage to acknowledge when aspects of your life are no longer serving you, and I commend you for taking this important first step.
