I believe every person is the expert of their life. I provide a safe environment where people can process and gain the insights and awareness they are seeking. Many of us feel trapped in shame, guilt, fear, loneliness, anger, and hurt and we become our own harshest critic. These feelings are often unconscious, deep-rooted and have not been recognized, acknowledged and shared with someone non-judgmental. Well-intentioned family members, friends and co-workers offer advice and support in ways that can inhibit our healing process. As we share our life stories with someone objective we are able to heal ourselves.

Every one of us develops core beliefs as we grow and start seeing the world accordingly. In this situation, we all become experts of our own lives. At the same time, we do not realize when we develop false beliefs that start impacting our mental health over all. Some may feel helpless, hopeless, and worthless because of those false beliefs. My role as a counsellor is to help those clients understand their core beliefs and replace false beliefs and negative thoughts with positive beliefs and thoughts.

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.

My therapeutic approach is client-centred, incorporating elements of evidence-based practices to provide individualized care. As a pre-licensed therapist, I am offering a sliding scale and free counselling. My ideal client is someone looking for a non-judgmental space where they can feel heard and understood while we explore their thoughts and concerns and work toward processing their experiences. This may include someone dealing with symptoms of stress, depression, or anxiety who is motivated to find coping strategies, build resilience, and enhance their overall well-being.

Nurturing a healthier, kinder relationship with all of your parts can be challenging, particularly if you have experienced trauma within your relationships. When we have experiences that mimic and reinforce the old thoughts, feelings and assumptions that we have always had about ourselves and/or others we can feel stuck, uncertain, scared or angry. We want to get out of these loops and free ourselves from the limiting beliefs and patterns that have misdirected us. Contrary to how it may feel at times, these are realistic goals!

Female Counsellors
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
