Leduc, AB T9E
Deciding to attend therapy often happens at very difficult times in life and it can be challenging to meet with a stranger to discuss personal issues. I work hard to create a space where a client can feel comfortable enough to engage in the therapeutic process and feel like they are actually getting something out of therapy, more than what they could get from having a chat with a good friend. I am able to offer a client a sense of partnership; that we are continually working towards change. I know clients do better when the therapist is present and engaged and so I work to give you a sense of who I am in our interactions.

Thank you for taking a moment to consider me as a potential counsellor. I recognize that it can often be a challenging step to initially seek out counselling, and then to determine with whom you want to share your stories.

As a psychologist I often hear "no one can help because no one understands!". Sometimes people feel overwhelmed and alone in the pain, fear and uncertainty. When chaos and crises are your daily reality, how do you manage? When you keep thinking about the horrible things that did or could happen, how do you stop? When you don't want to get up in the morning, how do you face the day? Honestly, I don't have all the answers but I have personally seen people find joy despite ongoing sorrow and I have seen tears and smiles coexist. I believe that with the right support, all people can explore how to find a sense of calm within the storm.

I offer culturally sensitive counseling both in English and Spanish. I believe that understanding someone's culture and world-view is a key element in the therapeutic work.

I work with adults, couples and families facing life crisis such as divorce, relationship problems, parenting issues, grief, career change, health concerns, abuse, etc. I can work with you to help you process challenging present and past experiences to facilitate your journey towards personal healing and growth.

Connection with others is vital, offering us a sense of safety, support, and belonging. Yet, there is so much in life that can block our ability to feel safe in relationships. Past traumas, emotional wounds, or unresolved issues may cause us to fear vulnerability or to build walls as a form of self-protection. Trust issues, negative experiences, or unhealthy patterns of relating can block the sense of safety that is needed for deep connection. Ultimately, people want to experience relationships where they are loved for who they are, where they can grow and evolve, and where connection offers a sense of wholeness.

I work with individuals and couples who have come to a crossroad in their life path and are searching for ways to decide on the direction they want to go. My practice is based on the belief that inside ourselves, we hold the information we need to recognize our own best course. Counselling is useful to bring up knowledge and experience that may have been forgotten or buried in the twists and turns of life. It is my job to work with clients, using the training and techniques I have learned, to help them find the resources and confidence to plot their way to the life they choose.
