Spruce Grove, AB T7X
I have over 8+ years of experience working with children, teens, adults, families, and about 3 years of experience facilitating relationship groups for women and men, as well as support groups for school-aged children, adolescents, and seniors.
Life transitions, daily stressors, trauma, and mental illnesses can negatively influence the way we think, feel, and behave. These factors can cause us to feel "stuck" in old habits and patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that no longer serve us. I recognize that when we are stuck, it is difficult to make that first step towards change and reach out for support. Hence, I acknowledge you for making the first step into finding what works best for you. I understand that you want to take charge of your mental and emotional pain so that you can unlock your utmost potential.

When life is overwhelming and you feel alone, I offer a safe space for those who want to tell their story and improve their health and well-being. Everybody needs somebody to talk to. There is no "one-size-fits-all" formula for wellness, which is why I offer a holistic approach to therapy, where collaboration and trust strengthen your unique path to self-discovery. The answers lie within ourselves and in times of crisis, when you may not have friends or family to turn to for help, psychotherapy can offer the support you need to discover the answers within yourself. Flexible hours and session delivery options available.

"Life's not about waiting for the storm to pass ..... It's about learning to dance In the rain." - Vivian Greene - I welcome the opportunity to dance in the rain with you ... to explore the storms that have marred your life and prevented you from knowing joy. To help you discover the beauty of the storm, and perhaps more importantly, become empowered to weather present and future storms. Personal pain takes many forms: relationships that are a little off, and need realignment, or completely broken requiring redesign. Your pain may take the form of depression, anxiety, fear, or traumatic memories.

I am a child and family clinician by training and also work with individuals and elderly adults.
Many times, people struggle with issues but are not sure what to do about them. Is counselling the right approach? Psychotherapy? Coaching? Maybe just coffee with a trusted friend seems like the best solution at times, but maybe you're not feeling sure about that either. What I usually recommend for people experiencing challenges but who are uncertain about what to do is to book a consultation session to talk about what's going on and some options or recommendations for what to do about it. Sometimes one consultation session is enough. Three-session consultations also are available for working through issues in more detail.

I work with adults across the lifespan from young adults to seniors addressing issues like depression, anxiety, grief/loss, fertility concerns, life transitions and perinatal mental health.
Life is filled with very few certainties, but we can be certain that life will always change. Sometimes that change is big and explosive, while other times change happens so slowly that we barely notice it. Sometimes we seek that change for ourselves and other times that change can be thrust upon us. However you find yourself in relationship with the notorious thing called change, please know that you are not alone and that you can and will get through this.
