I have training in relationship counselling as well as in working through grief and loss.
I work with clients experiencing challenges in relationships, increased stress, and adjusting to change. Clients seeking to improve relationships, manage stress more effectively and adapt to change or loss in their lives will find a good fit with the services I provide. I also work with clients in areas such as improving confidence and self worth and decision making.

I’ve been privileged to live and work in Alberta’s far north, where I’ve become familiar with a wide diversity of cultures and personalities. I understand the unique challenges – such as isolation, transportation, lack of access to support services - that Northerners face. My clients include those facing issues related to intergenerational trauma, residential schools, 60s scoop, addictions, family violence and systemic racism. I have experience working with trauma, sexual assault, grief and loss, separation/divorce, and the LGBTQ community.

Areas of focus include attachment, trauma, emotion regulation, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, family relationships, and identity.
I am passionate about supporting and empowering children, adolescents, parents and families in overcoming obstacles and discovering their full potential. I work from a collaborative framework, and believe that counselling works best when client and therapist are working together to address concerns and reach goals. I have built my practice around strengths-based, integrative modalities including Synergetic Play Therapy, Theraplay, expressive arts, sandplay, Polyvagal theory, CBT, somatic and mindfulness based practices.

Be it anxiety, grief, depression, general 'stuckness', unresolved trauma and abuse, your relationship with food or your body or big life transitions, we'll develop techniques for growth which foster deeper aliveness in Life and connection to Self inspired by restoration, non-duality, self-centering, and deep rootedness to your own Well-being.
I believe we’re all doing our best to make it work in a world that teaches isolation and self-reliance when we are wired for safe connection and secure dependence. You may be stuck feeling lonely, isolated, and empty, or maybe you’ve suffered through a difficult relationship, an impossible loss, or in securing a sense of belonging in the world. Through somatically-rooted psychodynamic counselling, we’ll focus on integrating the competing parts of you that fuel your tensions. Using parts-work, metaphor, and somatic practice, we’ll get curious about the patterns you’ve developed to survive.

Life is difficult. We all face challenges that leave us feeling sad, angry, overwhelmed and at times, stuck. Feelings change our behaviours and soon we find ourselves snapping, hating our jobs, drinking, and not eating or sleeping, among other symptoms. Suddenly we barely recognize ourselves. If you have ever told yourself that this is not the person you want to be, you are not alone. Seeking professional help is the first step in making positive change. If you are consumed by anger, hurt, worry, grief, suicidal thoughts, or using self-harm or poor coping to control pain, I can help.

Immediate Openings Available. With several different therapies and techniques in my toolbox, my goal is to tailor my approach to your needs. My therapy style most often has a staged approach (a beginning, middle and an end). I rely on your feedback and measure our progress, to make sure there’s improvement and we're making the most of your time. I ensure clients leave my office feeling better and more resourced than when they first arrived. I work well with clients who are experiencing burnout, increased stress and anxiety responses, depressive symptoms, grief and loss, trauma, work challenges and life change.

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.

I am licensed, registered, and insured to provide support for children, youth, and adults, and specialize in the treatment of Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and BPD. If you need strategies/ support with Addiction, Trauma, Loss, Grief, and life/situational/behavior concerns, let’s talk. When it's no longer true to wholly say, "I'm fine," or, "It is what it is," and when try this and have you thought of that suggestions aren't enough; it's a good time to connect to find solutions and support. If things have been done or said to you that have hurt you, you can heal. If you are fed up, exhausted, and tired, you can find the way through.
