I love to see individuals, couples and families get through their difficulties to find their best possible life.
When was the last time you felt a sense of wellness and peace? When was the last time you felt inner joy and equanimity? We all make mistakes and we all suffer from other people's mistakes and wrong done to us. However, we don't have to continue to live with the same pain and loss tomorrow.

Maybe you have tried many things and still feel there is something getting in the way of being the person you want to be. Maybe you are continuously looking for strategies to help you feel better but still feel stuck with difficult emotions and feelings. Maybe life threw obstacles in your way that turned your world upside-down. Sometimes, the obstacles can even come from inside in the form of negative, critical, anxious, or depressed thoughts and feelings. All this can keep you from connecting with others, making decisions, doing daily life activities, feeling confident about yourself, or finding meaning in life.

I help youth and adults navigate mental health challenges, increase self-awareness, and intentionally go after and get what they want from life. I'm a warm, open, accepting counsellor. I care deeply about the wellbeing of those I serve, and I believe that if someone feels accepted and valued just as they are, it provides the perfect environment for them to recognize their strengths, build stronger connections to others, and walk away from those relationships that no longer serve them in a healthy way.

Welcome. Life can be tough and we all struggle at times. Sometimes we just need someone to talk with; someone who will help us look at situations from different perspectives; to maybe see things differently or gain clarity and insight. My intention is to offer a safe non-judgemental place for you to explore life's mental and emotional challenges that have brought you here. You are the expert in your own life - I am here to help facilitate your exploration. I have found that by becoming curious without judgement about ourselves and life, one can arrive at a place of healing and enlightenment.

I regularly work with individuals, teens (16 and up), and adults, as well as couples and families. They face challenges such as anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, and perfectionism as well as general mental health concerns. These clients seek to improve their overall mental well-being, enhance self-esteem, and manage their perfectionist tendencies. Couples and families aim to improve communication, manage conflicts more effectively, and strengthen their connections. Their ultimate goal is to achieve a balanced, fulfilling life with healthier relationships and a stronger sense of self.

My clients worldwide learn to manage expectations, change thinking and behaviour, live a congruent lifestyle and create a sustainable self-care plan.
My approach is to allow you to bring your past into the present so that you can develop skills that free you to thrive in the future. I provide a safe, open and encouraging space to equip and free you to do three things: * identify automatic negative, limiting or unproductive thoughts and behaviours, and imagine a life beyond them; * move from the bondage of those thoughts and behaviours, into a freedom of intention and choice where you can live life with purpose and passion; * develop the skill to sustain this freedom on your own.

Reaching out for help is a leap of trust, an answer to a deep inner longing. My healing journey has informed me in my work as a therapist. I work from a stance of "what is right with you, and what have you done to get you from there to here?" I make suggestions, and you practice. I welcome your input, especially when you think I make mistakes. You will learn about the gifts of imagination, and what it means to become aware of inner resources already present within. Knowing the difference between anxiety, stress, and worry is life changing. Awareness of an inner life as well as an outer life brings one to a place of inner peace.

Your path of healing is a unique journey that can feel overwhelming, confusing, and at times hopeless. Whether you are experiencing a major life transition that has turned everything upside down, are grieving the loss of a loved one, in active recovery from a significant trauma, or simply feel a deeper call to access a more authentic expression of who you are, I’m here to help. I’ve supported veterans, first responders, and front line health workers navigate their recovery from trauma, burn out, and moral injury, which has inspired my approach to trust in each person’s capacity for resilience.

Therapy is about letting your guard down, saying the things you think but never voice and being real about your life.
Sometimes life feels like a lot. It could be a past experience that keeps running through your head, a transition that was more challenging than you expected or an ongoing issue in a personal or work relationship that is keeping you from fully living. The longer you push away, dismiss or ignore the painful feelings, the harder it becomes to live the life you imagined for yourself. The effects of trauma, anxiety and depression will take their toll on you and those around you. I work with people who are ready to take the first step towards healing.
