I've struggled with carriers, medical challenges, relationship and financial challenges at various times in my life.
Do you feel stuck, do you feel overwhelmed are you looking for a new direction away from where you currently are? I've been there, stuck and lost and I use my background, as well as my education to assist people every day to find a new direction for their life. I have been forced to recreate myself and I can help you to create a new pathway that meets your goals. During my time as a therapist I have devised a unique supplement to counselling which is called Echo Cognitive Supplemental Therapy or ECST. These audio recordings are personalized and reaffirms the goals we discuss during your counselling sessions.

I have a wealth of experience with other populations and difficulties as well, including OCD, anxiety, workplace issues, interpersonal issues, life transitions, and more.
Life can be difficult - we all go through struggles as we navigate the ups and downs of our experience. This can be further complicated when we're a member of a minority or marginalized group. As a queer woman myself, I am passionate about working with other queer individuals to help them explore and discover who they are, and how they want to express themselves in the world. Whether you're struggling with your sexuality, gender identity, depression, anxiety, or just having a hard time managing stress and life changes - I'm here to help!

We are all living the same life, with our families struggling to survive through their own lived experiences.
Are you noticing more about the world around you? Are you beginning to see patterns and repeating cycles in your life? It is hard to begin moving forward in life without becoming aware of how we respond and react. By becoming more aware, we are able to choose how we show up. We can choose whether we yell, whether we escape, whether we become more dysregulated. By building awareness, we have the power to become who we are meant to be, and to live our life's purpose. As a nurse psychotherapist, I help guide clients towards their true identity, offering them a warm, attuned presence so they can explore themselves fully.

As your trusted guide in supporting you on your journey to attain the best life you desire, I believe that therapy must consist of treating the mind and body as one.
Are you feeling disconnected, lonely or unmotivated? Are your relationships strained and you are feeling stuck in a rut? Do you criticize yourself with unkind words, judgment and comparison to others? Have you been trying to make some improvements in your life but are feeling overwhelmed? Sometimes trying to make positive changes in our life can be very difficult when we are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and self-esteem due to barriers that we may not be even aware of. Most of us are searching for nothing more than to live a life filled with happiness, contentment and a sense of purpose.

We can work together to bring a greater awareness to your daily life.
*PRE-LICENSED PROFESSIONAL*There are so many of us today that are sleep walking our days away. We don’t notice how our bodies are retaliating against how we have internalized our own traumas and challenges. We “think” our way out of critical issues and we forget to listen to our body, mind and spiritual being. We need to “wake up”. We need to feel again. It may be difficult to get there but we have to do away with being comfortably numb and get back to living our best life. With a varied toolbox we can explore various ways of uncovering a path to a more authentic life.

Life Coaching Counsellors

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
