Waitlist for new clients
At the Wild Art Therapy Collective, counseling therapists are trained in our Transpersonal Counseling Therapy approach.
As a trained Transpersonal Counseling Therapist with more than 10 years of professional experience, I work both in and outside the box of traditional talk therapy. I coach parents and first time fathers, provide concrete tools for technology addictions and emotional challenges, offer deep counseling therapy for trauma survivors and psycho-spiritual support for people exploring beyond the material world for answers. If we can meet in person, we have access to several different locations in Nova Scotia for Wilderness Therapy with horses, ocean, forests, rivers and plants. If we can only meet online, we'll open to the Wild near you.

Accepting new clients in person and virtually. Welcome! I work with children, teens, and adults experiencing a range of mental health challenges. I am first and foremost client-centred and collaborative in my approach, which means we work together on how to best support your mental health. Some modalities I tend to draw upon are sand tray therapy, expressive arts, narrative therapy, and DBT. However, therapy is for you, and if something doesn’t resonate, we will shift gears until we find something that does. Therapy is a journey we walk together.

I love to work with highly sensitive people at a stage where they want to drop the toxic drama and begin to engage in life rather than react to it. I love working with couples and individuals who need a different framework because their current model of the world isn't working anymore. In the second half of life, we look to relate to the world, not manage it.

I work from the perspective that everyone has basic healthiness, a natural yearning for brilliant sanity and the wisdom of wholeness as part of their being. Conditioning and confusion can obscure these endowments but they are never absent. My job is to help draw out this wisdom for healing that is already there, by encouraging awareness. I begin with client-centered listening that honours where you are now, and the change you want. I then move into more experiential work to facilitate transformation. The contract for change and the pace of change is always in the client's hands

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.
How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.
Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.
What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
