Are you finding yourself discouraged, defeated, short-fused or overwhelmed? Is motherhood, work, or another challenge like infertility, PMDD or anxiety/depression causing a major strain on you, your life, and your relationships? Now more than ever, women are feeling consumed by the amount of expectations put on her, in addition to the expectations she puts on herself. I believe it is possible to live an empowered, connected, and fulfilling life as a woman and/or mom, even when we are pushed to our absolute limits.

Life is full of surprises, and even on our best days, challenges can feel overwhelming. Through my personal journey navigating life's complexities and with my experience in the mental health field, I've come to understand the strength it takes to confront these challenges and that it is a personal journey for each of us. Through my own journey and experiences in both my personal and professional life I have experienced the impacts of mental health and stigma, and this has inspired me to be there for those who may be struggling and need help finding a voice and identifying their journey.

My approach is integrative, pulling from Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, EFT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and relational therapy.
So, you’re here because you want change. Maybe you are desperate for relief, but how can therapy help? Therapy is a process of reconnection. Connecting to yourself, your heart, and to others. When space is held for all parts of you to express themselves and be heard, things that were stuck can begin to move. It’s simple, but it’s not easy- fear and shame can make it so hard to be okay with ourselves and our lives. But you don’t have to do this alone.

Lets face it, the path to becoming a new parent can be stressful, unfamiliar, and scary. There's very little that can prepare you for the real-life challenges of postpartum and the profound transformation of one's identity.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Counsellors
What is Internal Family Systems therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a type of talk therapy that focuses on sub-personalities, or “families,” within a person, which may be made up of wounded parts and unpleasant emotions like anger and shame. These sub-personalities can come into conflict with each other and with an individual’s core Self, leaving the person feeling detached from positive traits such as the “8 C’s” of confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, curiosity, courage, compassion, and connectedness. By healing a patient’s wounded parts, a therapist aims to restore balance and bring on positive change.
How does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
An IFS therapist will work with a patient to identify their particular sub-personalities, recognize the emotions powering them, and release them. By doing so, the patient should become more able to address any underlying problems their sub-personalities may have been trying to protect them from. Ultimately, a patient discovers ways to manage internal and external conflicts on their own, through techniques such as relaxation exercises, journaling, and making charts depicting the relationships between their core Self and their distinct parts.
Does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
IFS therapy has been shown to help people address conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic, fears and phobias, trauma, and substance use disorders. Some research has also found that it can help individuals deal with symptoms of physical health conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, such as pain, everyday functioning, depressive feelings, and low self-compassion. There are some conditions for which IFS treatment, specifically discussions of one’s “parts,” may be less appropriate, such as schizophrenia or other states that involve psychosis or paranoia.
How long does Internal Family Systems therapy take?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for IFS therapy. After becoming comfortable with a therapist and the core concepts of IFS, some patients quickly make progress. While experiences vary, most will find that it is a relatively longer-term therapy, involving months and sometimes years of sessions.
