I believe the therapeutic relationship is conducive to the healing process.
*Accepting new clients* Life can be fairly difficult at times. It may feel like things will never change (I know, I've been there). It's never too late to begin healing. Small steps can lead to great change, and sometimes taking the 1st step is the hardest part. To help with this process, I offer a FREE 15-min. video consultation, providing you the opportunity to see if we would be a good fit. Whether you're struggling with feeling anxious, stressed, sad, lost or stuck, I am here to help. Through support, compassion and respect, together, we will work to find coping strategies that best suit you, your concerns and your goals.

I offer creative, collaborative, and strengths-based sessions for children, adolescents, adults, couples, caregivers, and families.
Personally and professionally, I have experienced the power of finding language that describes who we are and of being seen and supported in telling and retelling the stories that shape us. One of the ways we make sense of our experiences is through stories, both that we hold internally and that we share with others. It has been my honour and joy to join people in finding new and old meaning in their stories.

Whether you are struggling with personal issues, relationship problems, workplace challenges or parenting and child behaviours, therapy can provide you with an opportunity to express your concerns in a safe and non-judging environment where you will feel heard and acknowledged for who you really are.
After 25 years of providing psychotherapy, I am even more certain that assisting people to a better place of well-being is an honouring process. I believe that people usually come to a therapy process because despite their efforts, their roadmap in their lives doesn't apply anymore. Therapeutic conversations can provide an opportunity to explore life experiences and create new awareness of choices and strategies to resolve the difficulties that you may be experiencing.

I offer individual, couples, and family psychotherapy to young adults and adults.
Navigating the complexities of identity crisis, childhood trauma, interpersonal challenges, relationship with parents, low self-confidence, and self-esteem requires courage. These complexities might be affecting your interpersonal relationships as well, leaving you feeling disconnected or struggling to communicate effectively with your partner. Feeling unseen and unheard can be isolating; making it hard to ask for help as you might feel not good enough. However, together, we can navigate life's challenges with compassion, discover healing, and find resiliency in your journey toward growth and connection.

Couples Counselling
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
