In today's world there are no shortage of issues, problems or challenges that are commonly experienced on any given day by countless folks. What is unique is how we each identify, experience and cope with or resolve them. It is our philosophy that all human beings are inherently resilient and were never meant to solely cope or deal with many of the issues, problems or challenges that they often take on alone. Sometimes you can't articulate what you are going through, don't know exactly what you need or want and don't know where to start or what to do and that is ok.

In addition to supporting clients through life transitions and challenges, I offer First Responder or a Trauma Exposed Professional a safe space to work through mental wellness with knowledgable mental health clinician who has also worked in the field. I have come to psychotherapy after having worked over 20 years as a frontline paramedic and bring a unique perspective to both my First Responder and “civilian” clients. Working together we can maneuver this time of your life to create personal growth and satisfaction in a judgement free, inclusive environment.

Many of us silently cope with difficulties in our lives. But you don't have to. Reaching out to a counsellor for support gives you the opportunity to explore what is holding you back and start improving your quality of life. People have the capacity to make positive changes in their lives with the right support and guidance. With support, you will tap into your strengths, find hope and heal emotional wounds. I work with individual adults who are experiencing mental health issues (anxiety, depression, etc), trauma, phobias, negative self-esteem, family of origin issues, work issues, and relationship issues.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
