I am a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist trained in betrayal trauma, and I use a variety of interventions, including EMDR therapy in my practice.
Are you trying to figure out how to move forward after having your relationship end or discovering your partner's emotional or physical betrayal? My team at Lost & Found Counselling specializes in betrayal trauma recovery. Betrayal trauma is very real and can occur when the sense of safety and security in a relationship is broken due to cheating, unexpected ending of the partnership, abuse and/or lies. Experiencing this type of trauma can completely shake our beliefs about ourselves, about others, and about the world around us. This can feel lonely, scary, overwhelming and confusing.

Welcome. Thank you for considering the opportunity for us to work together. I am a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and a Canadian Certified Counsellor. I specialize in counselling for bereavement, loss, and grief. Particular areas of focus are: death and dying, traumatic grief, suicide bereavement, pregnancy loss, pet loss, anticipatory grief, nonfinite loss, and ecological grief. Grief is our natural response to the loss or anticipated loss of someone or something that matters to us. Surviving grief is an adaptive process of learning to live in a world that has been changed by our losses.

My intention is that you will gain awareness and clarity that lead to the discovery of your inner capacities in moving through life's rough patches.

Taking the time to search for healing and meaning can feel daunting. The opportunity to reflect in a space that is free of judgment can allow us to tap into a sense of healing and vitality from within. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the words for an experience or emotion, making it difficult to accept their impact. Collaborating with a counsellor can help us identify and give voice to the parts of ourselves that we have learned to silence or ignore.

I’m a second generation European settler, an explorer of nature, a knitter, and a Registered Clinical Counsellor who has supported youth and adults and their mental health for over a decade. I’m a calm, curious, relaxed person who has been asking the big existential questions of who we are and why we’re here and what to do about that my whole life. I love bringing this curiosity into the counselling space and supporting you to identify how those questions are impacting you. You may be feeling depressed, full of anxiety, working through past and current traumas, or grappling with the difficulties that being alive inevitably brings.

Specializing in somatic (body-based), nature-based, depth and existential counselling, my dog Hazel and I work alongside you to support your personal growth and healing.

Together we work with embodiment, Soul, Spirit, archetypes, the natural world and dreams to move towards wholeness and health. I love working with queer folx across the spectrum. I also offer relationship counselling and welcome anyone with an interest in exploration into my practice

I believe in a non-judgemental person centered form of counselling. In particular, I work with children and youth who identify as neurodivergent. Together with parent(s)/and/or caregiver(s) I provide support and care for the daunting challenges that can occur when a person is neurodivergent. I have been working in the school system for over 21 years. I have experience working with children and youth from ages 5-17 as a support teacher and school counsellor. I understand the importance of providing a safe, caring, and secure relationship with all students but particularly with neurodiverse children.

I approach therapy as a creative and collaborative process that involves the whole being of both the therapist and client. In order to lead fulfilling, joyful lives, humans need access to the intelligence available through their physical, psychological, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual selves. Trauma, shame, and fear can disrupt our ability to access and experience these aspects of self fully, and can leave us feeling dissatisfied with our lives. By working directly with clients' felt sense of their bodies, as well as their stories and their feelings, I support clients in deepening their relationship to all aspects of themselves.
