I love walking beside children, teens and young adults who have big emotions - helping them learn to navigate how to see them and handle them in a way that feels more effective for them! I try to bring in their parents as much as is needed to allow for a systemically supported change for the better!

I truly believe that each person is of immense value and worth. Each time I sit with a client, I feel honoured to be allowed into the sacred place of their inner world. The work of healing and growth is complex and difficult. However, when we are met in our struggles while being truly seen and witnessed, we begin to be able to tolerate more as we come to know our true Self better. I seek to approach people's stories with compassion, curiosity, and authenticity. I am passionate about the opportunity that individuals have for change and growth when they are provided with compassionate care in a non-judgmental and safe environment.

People come to a place in their lives where they have been wounded in their relationships or experiences. Everyone has their story that has caused them to be in the place they are currently. And sometimes parts of our story interfere with us being able to move forward. We may find ourselves irritable, cranky, depressed, snappy, sarcastic, anxious, defensive, sensitive and protective. All of which are coping strategies for the hurt that has been suffered. These coping stances interfere with connections which is opposite of what we are longing for. All of us our craving to be in relationship.

Finding a therapist you trust and feel safe with is foundational to successful counselling. As a therapist, I use compassion, experience, authenticity and insight create a space where you are safe to process your thoughts and feelings, strengths and struggles and to receive support for expressing, connecting with and honouring your deepest values and life goals. Being responsive to clients needs also requires therapeutic education, direction and curiosity. I value asking questions which support you in experiencing your own “ah ha” moments. I will work to help you put language to some of the challenges you have experienced.

My clients have said "counselling with you feels different". Likely, because it is often matter of fact, to the point, humour infused and honest. I am your biggest cheerleader, but I will hold you accountable, like a needed conversation with an insightful friend.

Are you ready to process traumatic experiences and cross the bridge to a healthier you? Some of these experiences may be chronic pain, phobias, flashbacks, nightmares, obsessions, depression and anxiety. Decades ago, when I entered my therapist's office the first time, I was skeptical and nervous wondering how talking with a stranger would help me feel better. Surprisingly, I was able to understand the complexities of my issues and experience life in more meaningful ways. I am dedicated to help you break free from the experiences that are holding you back and develop resilience to live a fulfilling life.
