Too often I hear stories of people struggling in silence, battling inner thoughts and not knowing what to do with them. Shrouded in fear and shame, they do their best to navigate their daily lives hoping things will get better, but sometimes the struggle continues. Seeing a counsellor can help ease this burden. Whether it's about relationships, careers, family or personal challenges, talking to a trusted counsellor can be the start of offloading these troubling thoughts and allowing space for clarity, growth and direction.

I'm a genderqueer trans counsellor who works with adults, youth, and families to gently explore difficulties while affirming the ways people are already working towards their own healing. Right now we are dealing with a lot: COVID-19, the ongoing and escalating police violence against Black and Indigenous peoples, as well as the ongoing racism against Asian and South Asian communities and Hispanic and Latin communities. In these times we need to find ways to support each other through the isolation, uncertainty and hardships. I offer several sliding scale options to make counselling as accessible as possible.

I understand firsthand how much of a balancing act life can be. I know that life can present challenges that take us off course and result in feelings of frustration, anxiety, and fear. I know that the competing demands of work and family life can make it feel like you are being pulled in all directions and not really doing anything well, it's as though you are barely keeping your head above water. I work with people who are ready feel differently.

We can't say goodbye to a problem until we say hello to it. If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, depressed, alone or hopeless, therapy is a place where it's OK to talk about the hard & confusing things, where you get to tell your truth as you see & feel it. If you experience shame, guilt, disappointment, regret, anger or resentment in your life, counselling gives you an opportunity to understand yourself better without being rushed or judged. Listening to all the parts of you that want to be heard can lead to a sense of relief, better relationships & sleep, feeling more grounded & living a more meaningful & authentic life

Many of my clients are successful and vibrant externally (professionals, students, mothers) but they face some deeper internal challenges. Perhaps it is hard to understand why this issue persists despite your ability to manage so well in other areas of your life. I will support you to live the life you envisioned for yourself, free from unnecessary emotional difficulties.

My client focus is working with neurodivergent people with conditions such as ADHD, Autism and Learning Disabilities. Although these differences can be an asset in many situations, individuals may have difficulty navigating a world not necessarily designed for them. Feelings of depression, anxiety, anger, and low self esteem may linger from years of feeling misunderstood or being under-equipped in social, school or work settings. Exploring your strengths, obstacles and goals allow you to take charge of your mental health and work with your difference rather than against it.
