"We cannot solve problems with the kind of thinking we employed when we came up with them." - Albert Einstein.

I believe that true belonging and healing comes from a place deep within ourselves. This journey varies for everyone but ultimately counselling gives us the navigation to find our way. It also provides us with the tools for support if or when we find ourselves lost and/or stuck.

You might be hesitating to reach out, worried that the challenges you face are to big to overcome, or that it's too late for you to experience true change and fulfillment. Facing these fears alone can make you feel trapped, powerless, and isolated, but you don’t have to do this alone. When we become consumed by unresolved losses or traumas, and the shame, challenges, and stress overwhelm us we can find ourselves engaging in behaviours, patterns, and substance use as a way to find temporary relief from life’s harsh realities, and we can lose sight of our strengths, aspirations, and even loved ones.

I am here to support your healing journey by facilitating a process of clearing, releasing and processing any of the old traumas, pains, challenges, blocks, fears and limiting beliefs that no longer serve to help you create a new life full of possibilities, opportunities, stability, balance, empowerment, happiness and abundance.

Therapy could be the key to open your compassionate process of accepting yourself and expanding your mental and heartfelt capacities. Moving at your pace and preference, we explore and identify your emotional, mental and relationship patterns that may seem bewildering or intense now, but with an open and patient perspective, I give you the space to validate, reframe and shift those patterns that no longer serve you. Ultimately, your willingness to meet any challenge or aspiration is a profound act of self-reflection rooted in courage that ripples out into how you live, relate and create in the world.

Something's in the way. Sadness, anxiety, loneliness, stress, worry, depression, substance use, loss. The world is heavy, and that weight can be paralyzing. You know that you have something to offer. You're compassionate, creative, intelligent, sensitive, loving, and yet strong-willed, skeptical, and maybe even a bit rebellious. It seems as though you don't fit the mold, but it's the mold that doesn't fit you. Social isolation, feeling disconnected from others, from the world, adds to the weight, to the pain. If you could only break free from the self-doubt that cultures and institutions feed, the world might just open up for you.

At Nirivia Counselling our goal is to help people develop a greater understanding of their issues and increase positive supports to create change.

Grief / Loss and Trauma leave us feeling completely overwhelmed, anxious, feeling like no one else can understand what we are going through and often utterly alone. Sometimes just trying to get through the day feels impossible and we can't even think straight. Sometimes we know that our behaviours today are linked to the terrible thing that has happened but we aren't sure what to do about it. I see individuals who are looking for relief. They are looking for someone to help support them as they regain their footing, develop strategies to manage the anxiety and reprocess the loss and trauma they have experienced in a safe way.

My work focuses on those who find themselves lost along their journey. Life can become stressful very quickly. You may feel like you've lost control, that you are stuck in repeating undesired patterns or you just haven't felt like yourself recently. These ups and downs make us human. It's in those down moments that things can begin feeling really dark. You may not be able to see the path forward, bringing up various emotions. Path Forward Counselling was created to help in these moments of distress. A masters level counsellor at Path Forward Counselling can see a path and help guide you along, even when it is hidden from you.

I work with adults of all ages to help make sense of their experiences, process past trauma, feel awake to the current moment, and create a path toward renewal and growth. I believe that we all deserve to develop our sense of self and our sense of meaning in a compassionate and non-judgmental space. Together, we can give voice to the many parts of your internal and relational world and start to build towards the changes you want to see in your life.
