You desire more from life, but have no idea how to achieve it. You want to grow into a better version of yourself, but the change you desire seems so gigantic, that you sometimes think it’s impossible. Your past, limiting beliefs about yourself, lack of tools, structures, motivation, maps and accountability are keeping you STUCK. You hate it, but have no idea how to get out of this rut of stagnation, and you sometimes feel like giving up. It's likely that you've even tried-several times-to change, but you keep ending up in the same place, only now, you're even more discouraged.

If you are just tired of giving and caring for everyone around you except for yourself, you’ve come to the right place. I come from a teaching background where students and duties came first. As a child of immigrant parents and currently a military spouse, I have also experienced increased stress due to frequent relocations and living far away from family and friends. A common block to getting much-needed help and support is the belief that self-care is selfish. The thing is by slowing down and taking care of your own emotional and mental needs you will be able to offer so much more to the world!

Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion

Have you ever felt alone, disconnected or abandoned? I’ve had those moments too. Growing up amidst parental mental illness came with a lot of challenges but it also gave me compassion and understanding. We needed the support of a caring community of family and friends to help us walk through many difficult times. My lived experiences inspired me to study psychology and human behavior for much of my adult life. This pursuit has provided me with the opportunity to help others so they can feel supported on their journey.

Coaching Counsellors
Life coaching is an increasingly popular profession that has no specific licensing or academic requirements. Though psychologists also often consider themselves life coaches, these therapists don't focus on treating mental illness. Instead, they help individuals realise their goals in work and in life.
