The relationship you develop with your therapist is the foundation of your work, so if this all sounds good to you, let's talk.
I work in relationships, be it with folks struggling within friendships, familial relationships, with intimate partners, or within their own relationship with themselves. There are hidden patterns and invisible dynamics that shape how we feel and understand ourselves and others that I can help you bring to light. I especially work well with women and those looking to understand the women in their lives better. Issues like emotional labour, codependency and people pleasing often show up here.

From the moment you start therapy with me, your old relationship is over.
Stop yearning for a deeper emotional connection, and instead achieve open and honest communication, and a renewed sense of trust and intimacy. If you envision a relationship where you both feel seen, heard, and understood, where conflicts are resolved with compassion and respect, we can help. The decision to seek help can bring up vulnerability and uncertainty about the future of your relationship. These feelings are valid and common; don't have to navigate these struggles alone.

You look at your life, and find that something feels off. Maybe your sex life is not what you imagined it would be. Or you’re not feeling fulfilled in your relationship/s. You know what's important to you - connection? intimacy? adventure? family? - but something prevents you from living life to the fullest. Perhaps anxiety, low mood, self-criticism, or shame get in the way. Or you’ve faced a stressor or health issue that has brought new roadblocks. You may have even been on autopilot for so long, being the kind of person you “should” be for others, that you don’t know exactly who you are anymore.

Sometimes people get stuck. Individuals and couples come to me for counselling to talk about a variety of problems - things like conflict in relationships, anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, abuse, grief, vocational crisis, or anger. A counselling relationship helps people to move from understanding issues to co-creating solutions - solutions that shrink and manage problems. I use an integrative approach, drawing on different counselling methods depending on what works best for the client, including practices from cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and solution-based therapy. I can help you to move through difficult times with courage, accountability, and positive resolve.

If you want to work on your relationship with the people you care about in your life, including yourself, that is my focus.
My main area of focus is helping eliminate abuse in interpersonal relationships, from as seemingly "light" as bickering to more escalated confrontations. I've worked with perpetrators (males and females) of domestic violence for nine years, helping people to re-establish healthier relationships with partners and family members again. Much of this is developing communication and empathy skills, all in the context of understanding yourself better and, often, your life experiences you've had that have brought you to this point.

I have offered services to couples, individuals and family groups for over 20+ years. I believe that couple therapy can help to improve the quality of a relationship by creating new ways of communication and connection which enhances emotional and physical intimacy between partners. Through individual counselling, I believe that each of us can overcome difficulties and struggles to achieve emotional balance and realize the inner strengths we have.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
