I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and a Certified Art Therapist (DVATI). I work from a culturally sensitive, anti-oppressive, inclusive framework. I use a creative process because it engages people on many levels and allows them to express themselves and their difficulties in new and unexpected ways. Through a trusting therapeutic relationship, we can work to shift these challenges into new perceptions. This process can be intimidating for some, who think “I can’t draw very well”. These skills are not a necessity, as the therapeutic work can happen as much in the process itself as it does when exploring the product.

Seeking support is sign of courageousness and strength. When we face challenging times, difficult emotions can leave us feeling alone and overwhelmed. Ideally, such times are opportunities to deepen our understanding of ourselves and of the lessons that have been presented to us. This path is a process of expressing our feelings, exploring our inner lives, and discovering our true and authentic natures. I believe that our well-being is rooted within us, although finding it can be complex therefore making growth difficult to experience.

First, congrats on seeking help. Perhaps you've been trying to manage and change on your own up until now. Feeling like you need to be able to "handle" everything that life throws at you. Like you "should" be able to figure it all out somehow. Putting effort into changing, only to find yourself repeating patterns, feeling defeated, and stuck about what to do next. It is exhausting! Choosing to finally get help may feel hard, but honestly, from here it can get easier. You're getting off the rollercoaster of doing it alone! I've seen 1st hand for so many people how counselling can be a life changing.

Whether you are feeling stuck in life, experiencing a transition or loss, or feeling disconnected from your core self, counselling can help. My clients are typically high-functioning and competent individuals, yet struggle on the inside with issues such as anxiety, emptiness, identity and recurring unhelpful patterns which affect them, their relationships, and other areas of their lives. What if you viewed the parts of you that feel stuck or the issues that you experience as profound opportunities for growth and transformation?

Life is difficult. I work with clients to relieve pain and stress in their lives through somatic therapy, narrative therapy, psychoanalytic theory, and personality theory while using strategies such as CBT, with the goal of living a more meaningful life. As clients discover more about their morals and values, they understand more about their behaviour and emotions. Psychotherapy can be an incredible experience; I encourage clients to explore what is meaningful and purposeful in their life.
