I offer counselling and psychotherapy services for individuals. I am committed to establishing an encouraging environment where clients feel safe to discuss their issues and rediscover a sense of courage. I work with clients to help them develop increased insight into their issues. I empower clients with effective life skills and problems solving strategies. I view life as a process of overcoming and in pursuing personal growth. My approach is holistic and client centered. I am passionate about helping clients overcome anxiety and depression, learn to be compassionate to themselves, and work towards their ideal life.

I have a passion for helping people during times of change and growth, as well as during the difficulties of illness, grief or trauma. I work from a relational perspective and have developed a keen interest in supporting people by weaving together tools of therapy with a very person-to-person approach to healing and growing. I specialize in supporting those who have experienced trauma, as well as those who are navigating major life changes and transitions such as: new baby, quarter or mid-life crisis, relationships, empty nest, existential exploration as well as those moving through illness, grief or bereavement.

At times, many of us contend with emotions and suffering that are overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and difficult to bear, often as a result of unique stressors and events.

I encouraged clients to access inner strengths and free their capacity for growth. Whether you or a family member experience depression, anxiety, marital distress or difficulties with peers, you deserve support in a confidential, accepting, safe and caring environment.

I offer an individualistic and holistic approach, specifically tailoring the treatment plan to suit your unique needs.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and stressful, thus making it difficult to cope. Therefore, my hope is to help you work through some of your issues (i.e., anxiety, grief, loss) that you are struggling with by providing the skills, insight, and knowledge you need to lead a life you want. I know talking to someone about painful emotions and memories can be difficult so thank you for taking the first step to seeking help.

Trauma is concretely defined as an emotional response to a terrible event, however this definition does not encompass all of the undertakings you may be experiencing. Trauma can occur from family generations, a close friend's experience, or seeing something on the media that affects us deeply. Your trauma will not look the same as another person's and that's okay. If you are looking to process and heal from the heavy weight of trauma, through a collaborative effort, I can help you unpack your story to be able to move forward.

“Lost”, “Stuck”, “Overwhelmed”, are these words you would use to describe your life? Do you feel like you're standing still while others are passing you by, but you don’t know how or where to move forward? Life throws us many difficult challenges, especially when in our teens and early adulthood. Young people today are faced with balancing pressures from family, friends, school, work, and society, all while trying to find a path in life. Trying to navigate the stress coming at you from multiple angles can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and can make it hard to have good relationships.

Thank you for looking at my profile. It means you have taken the first step towards self care. Looking for a way to take care of your Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Self. Good for you! Now imagine your true self. The authentic you. Free from all the burdens you've been carrying. It is possible to be that self again. Together we will uncover and work through whatever you need to, to live the life you want. As we experience life, we sometimes struggle & suffer & build defences & adaptive behaviours to help us cope. Later on, these ways of being no longer serve us well and we want to free ourselves of them but find it too challenging.
