I am interested in working with those who struggle with depression, anxiety, anger, shame and motivation. I feel psychotherapy is a space to reflect on the meaning of your experiences and emotions and use them to guide your actions in life. I see therapy sessions as intense conversations that help clients create a life that integrates past and present experience to inform a way of going forward that feels true, inspiring and achievable.

Hello! Welcome to The Serenity Space, I am so glad you are here. At the heart of my work is my value of creating a safe space for us to explore topics together. I am passionate about supporting individuals and couples through conflict in relationships, experiences with big emotions, transitions through postpartum/parenthood, or feelings of being constantly stressed or on edge. Whatever season of life you find yourself in, I hope to provide a supportive space to explore it together.

Have you checked all of the boxes, followed all of the steps, and find yourself asking ‘now what?’ Whether it’s navigating a career path or your relationships, it can be challenging to know the right way forward. As someone who has recently moved home after living abroad, I understand how difficult it can be to determine the next steps personally and professionally. I offer counselling that can provide you with a space to tune out the outside noise and tune in to your own thoughts and feelings. While there is no one right way to do things, together we’ll explore the way that is right for you.

Reaching out for help takes a lot of courage, so we appreciate you being here. Life can be very difficult and suffering is a part of our human experience, but you don't have to go through it alone. Humans are neuro-biologically designed for connection. We need it to survive. Our intention as therapists at Seasons is to provide you with a safe space, grounded in acceptance, compassion, and connection, to share your story. Together we will travel through it with curiosity and non-judgement to find the awareness that you need to build a better relationship with yourself. We are trauma-informed and respectful of your uniqueness.

Are you struggling in this crazy world? Do you feel anxious, sad, frustrated, angry, overwhelmed, and/or tired of it all? Do you feel lost and alone, that no one understands you, that you are fighting your struggles alone? Is it difficult to muster the motivation and energy to do things that you once enjoyed? Are you constantly embroiled in conflict with others? Do you wish things were better, that you felt better, that the pain, sadness, and conflict would go away and be replaced with happiness, peace, contentment, and joy?

Life can quickly become so busy that everyday interactions become overwhelming obstacles, impacting your life in ways you may not even realize. I work to create a safe, non judgemental space where you can explore these issues and more, while learning how changes to your thoughts, actions, and feelings, can have a significant impact on your wellbeing. I also support your ability to tune into the present, exploring your felt senses as messages that your body is communicating to you. In this way, you regain control over things that could otherwise feel impossible.

You may be considering counselling therapy for a specific reason such as a grief or sadness, difficulty in controlling your use of drugs or alcohol, or life changes such as separation and divorce. Perhaps life simply seems difficult. Many of us will have had difficult experiences at some stage of our lives that may have affected our sense of self or leave us searching for more. Although it may be difficult to reach out for help, please know that I will hear your story with compassion, openness, and a willingness to support you in your healing process.

There are so many experiences in life that can make us lose touch with ourselves. You may feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders and you’re unable to relax or let go. If you've had to be the one keeping it together and supporting other people, you may be here because you feel like you're just treading water with no direction or sense of safety. Therapy can be a place for you to finally let those walls down, let go of the burden to be "the strong one" and reconnect with yourself.

Hello ! I’m Hannah Sparkes with Spark Your Growth. Seeking support can be hard so I appreciate you taking time to view my profile and see if I am a suitable fit for you! I work with clients to help heal trauma, develop self-confidence, cope with life’s stressors, build stronger relationships, regulate anxiety and stress, overcome addiction and achieve a life you want to live, amongst other things. Given that each person is unique, I understand there is no one-size fits all when it comes to therapy. I use a combination of cognitive and somatic therapies to create an approach that will meet each individual's needs and interests.

Life has its ups and downs. Often we can find ways to cope, and even grow, riding out those waves. But most of us also have times when it all just seems too much; we cannot see a clear path ahead. That's when having the support of someone who listens without judgement and is fully present can be immensely helpful. That is the essence my counselling approach. My aim, in the time we spend together, is to help you discover and reconnect with your inner resources, as well as gain some new tools and create a viable plan to help you move from simply surviving to thriving.

In developing a safe and respectful environment, I strive to help clients feel comfortable to start the journey of recovery from addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and/or anger. I understand the journey of recovery from substance use disorders is not easy but I am here to support clients towards their goals. I also understand life transitions of individuals, especially athletes and how mental health is a large component of an athlete's identity.
