Welcome to Therapy Heals! I have worked with adults to process and overcome the far-reaching impacts of trauma on the mind and body. I work with those who have experienced trauma from historical childhood abuse, unhealthy relationships, sexual abuse and sexual assault. Trauma can show up in many ways in the mind and body including anxiety, depression, nightmares, difficulty trusting others, among many other common symptoms. I use a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches that are trauma focused to support you in processing your experiences and reaching your goals for therapy.

“With a heart like that, you deserve the world.” (R.M. Drake) - Don’t we all deserve to be the very best version of ourselves, the Best You that there can be. Together, we can examine common negative thinking patterns; in addition, we can work on developing better coping strategies aimed at enhancing personal positive reasoning skills and attitude.

Welcome to Therapy Heals! I have experience working with clients experiencing issues such as substance and behavioural addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, as well as relationship issues, low self-esteem, and difficulties with setting healthy boundaries and using assertive communication. I use an approach based in cognitive and dialectical behavioural therapy, as well as elements of motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and cognitive-processing therapy to help clients understand how issues such as anxiety and depression are often rooted in negative self-thought that hold us back from our full potential.

For almost 10 years I have been providing counselling and therapy services to individuals and families. During my career I have supported adults, children, youth and families to manage experiences of anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, relationship issues, stress, trauma, grief and loss, parenting challenges and more. I am known for my empathetic approach, my ability to build strong relationships with my clients, and my commitment to ensuring that everyone I work with feels heard, valued, and supported. I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach and tailor my practice to fit each client’s needs and best interests.

I see people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, addictions, adjustment to change in their lives, relationship or family conflict, or the residual pain left from difficult childhoods or painful life events. My way of working as a therapist is to get to know you: your hopes, your talents, your problems and your unique way of thinking and expressing yourself. We then proceed with treatment based on who you are and what you need. The aim is to allow coping with your weaknesses to help you uncover your strengths, and your way forward.

Are you ready to make some changes in your life? Whether you have been stuck in patterns that no longer work for you, or are in a place where you are unsure of how to change them, therapy is a wonderful tool to untangle from the life we don't want and move towards the life we do. Whether we are struggling with relationship problems, destructive patterns, life crisis, thought and mood disturbances, lethargy, or lack of fullfillment in life, therapy always offers a platform for change and inner healing. The journey inward can powerfully affect change in our life.

Welcome to Therapy Heals! I have witnessed the positive impact that a non-judgmental, safe, and comfortable space can have for clients of all ages and life stages. I hold the belief that clients feeling they are listened to and empowered are key components within the change process; I have a very warm and empathetic approach to ensure this is felt by all clients. For the past 5+ years, I have been supporting children (5+), teens, caregivers (of children ages 0-18), and families; building upon their strengths to create the change that they wish to experience in their lives.
