Hi, want to talk about how you're doing? How are your relationships, do you feel genuinely connected to the people in your life? Is there something you're sitting with that you've thought about countless times but can't seem to shift your thinking about? Would it help to have someone to look at it with, someone who's curious about your perspective and sees it from a slightly different angle? It can be scary to imagine unpacking and examining how we relate to others and ourselves: it often involves exploring where we've been in order to understand where we are and where we're headed. I'm here to accompany you on that journey.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk to blossom” -Anais Nin. I can appreciate how difficult it is to make the first steps in entering into a therapeutic relationship. Telling our stories takes tremendous courage and strength. We can trick ourselves into believing that it would be easier to remain silent. We all hit a point in our lives where we need extra guidance, a genuine ear, or a safe place to open up. I create a safe and open space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and stories. I combine several therapeutic techniques, to allow you the freedom to share your journey.

To the world we can appear to be hard working, confident, a good planner, helpful! On the inside we can live in permanent conflict. Fear of Failure, Living in 'Survival Mode', Imposter Syndrome, Overthinking. You worry about the effects on your body, the discomfort, the tension. You worry who will notice. You worry you are not enough. When is the last time you felt like yourself? When we don't feel like we are being our best selves, life can be draining. Anxiety, Trauma, Depression and Low Self-Esteem can make daily tasks seem daunting, overwhelming and never ending.

Are you feeling stuck? Do you want to make changes in your life? Explore your relationship to self, identity, or purpose in life? My typical clients experience intergenerational trauma, childhood trauma, PTSD, anxiety, GAD, relationship problems, burn out, midlife crisis and who otherwise are seeking more fulfilling authentic lives. We can explore parts (IFS informed) and how they may help or hinder you, and examine the role of the unconscious and how it can be integrated into your awareness. My role is to journey with you as a fellow traveler to uncover meaning and purpose, radical acceptance and change. Visit my website for more.

As a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer counselling services to adult clients, on an individual basis or as a couple. There are many different concerns that I can help clients process, including relationship issues, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, women's issues, and life transitions. There are no pre-requisites to counselling; I will work to meet clients where they are at on their journey and help them process from there. Depending on the concerns, I have a strong network of resources (both community and other professionals) that we can access if necessary.
