It is a common experience to desire a deeper connection with and understanding of yourself throughout your life journey. Perhaps you are dealing with relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, adddictions, conflicts and/or worries as a parent or your child may be struggling. Whatever brings you to therapy, I am here to create a safe, kind, authentic space for you to address your needs using a trauma-informed, strength and diversity-based lens.
I have decades of lived and professional experience working with individuals - both adults and youth - who are seeking strategies to address life's challenges, as well as restore a sense of wellness and purpose to their life.
Using compassion, humour, genuine presence and curiosity, I will facilitate your process of coming more deeply 'home' to yourself and work in partnership with you to enhance your wellness kit. Depending on your needs, we may explore CBT, DBT, mindfulness, narrative therapy, body-oriented focus, compassion-based practises, and solution-focused approaches.
