If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

Hi, I'm Emily! It was apparent to me from a very young age that I wanted to pursue a career in counselling. It wasn’t until I got diagnosed with IBS and Crohn’s that I began directing my career towards helping others navigate similar struggles. Recognizing the complexities of living with a chronic health condition and autoimmune disease, my goal is to work collaboratively with individuals to regain control of their lives using various evidence-based practices that encourage self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-development. Sessions with me also include healthcare system navigation, psychoeducation, and advocacy skill building.
