Waitlist for new clients
Do you often feel like nobody really gets you? Like when you share about yourself, people don't ask followup questions but instead they simply shift the focus back to themselves? It's hard to heal, grow, and work towards positive change when you feel unheard, unseen, and unknown. I know from many years of experience that when clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood, they feel safe, empowered, energized, and motivated to do the hard work of changing, growing, and healing.

I work in a person-centered, feminist, and mindfulness approach in person and online (my home base is Winnipeg,MB) where I gently assist my clients in walking through past experiences to understand how it impacts their life today and sometimes challenge client's thoughts by reframing them together.
In life, we will all experience uncomfortable feelings, transitions we weren't prepared for, endings, feeling stuck and helpless on how to navigate things we didn't ask for. I'm here to normalize although this journey isn't perfect asking for help is an example of true strength and awareness. I primarily work with young couples and young adults managing issues such as relationships, emotional abuse, unresolved childhood trauma, social media, family relationships, school, career and, burnout issues.

How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.

When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.

Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
