Hello, and welcome. I'm happy you're here. We move through the world as a sum of our experiences. Some of these experiences have made us feel unsafe, unsettled, or even unappreciated. It’s difficult to live and move when you don’t feel right in your own skin. Do you have goals, plans, or needs that aren't addressed? Let's look at them together. I'm straightforward and compassionate in my approach. I'm convinced what matters is authenticity and being real together while holding space for tender work. American Psychologist Stephen Porges has said “feeling safe is the treatment and creating safety is the work”.

You were going along with your daily routines, but now things are starting to feel more difficult. You’re starting to feel overwhelmed and life is just not going as you had expected. You might start to put on a brave face, but inside you are just not feeling like the version of yourself you once were. You notice your patience is thinner with the people that you usually enjoy having around you, you’ve even snapped and said something you didn’t mean before you could stop yourself. You try to fix it but then it happens again. You talk down to yourself and just cannot boost yourself out of this funk. Now you’re taking a brave step.

We have more of an opportunity to become better individuals in relationship with a significant other than alone with shallow relationships. Relationships, Conflict, Anger, Communication, Addictions, are all issues I help people with on a daily basis.

I do this work because people have value. Everyone has a story of personal pain and my office serves individuals, couples, and families to heal from personal pain.

Most of us have felt stuck - as though we are simply getting by doing the things we've always done. Usually those behaviours - thoughts, feelings, and actions - developed because, at some point in our lives, they were useful! They helped us to survive situations that seemed unconquerable at the time. Now these same behaviours may lead to isolation, emptiness, worry, or avoidance, and we feel uncertain how to change them. Having an opportunity to observe those behaviours, without judgement, can help us understand what we want out of life, and can lead us towards a sense of fulfillment and meaning.

Hello! I am Juanita (she/her) and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) recently graduated from my Masters in Counselling Psychology. I believe that there is no problem too big or too small for therapy, and I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. My goal is to help individuals move through life barriers, connect with their true selves, and find ways to dictate their own journey and life story.

I have over 12 years’ experience working various roles in mental health including clinical private practice, education, and residential treatment.

Do you know the feeling where you just don't know what to do or say? Maybe it is your child grappling with someone bullying them at school. Maybe you and your partner are feeling totally unsure how to be the parents and partners you both want to be. Maybe something tragic and life changing has happened and things are indescribably different - in ways you never wanted. Maybe you are seeing your teen shrink away from life in ways that seem totally out of character. Somehow your own life - your own family, your own children, your own choices - can feel like a mystery.

Do you want to see changes in your life, but don't know what to do next? Do the same issues or patterns come up for you again and again? As we go through life, we face challenges that can impact us and our personal growth going forward. Sometimes the things we have been doing in the past to cope and get by don't seem to work anymore, or don't have the same effect as they did before. We need to find new ways of thinking and behaving to readjust, cope, and heal from the past so we can manage the challenges ahead of us. Let’s team up together to take control of your story and make the changes you would like to see in your life.

June 2024: waitlist started. I'm happy you’ve found my page. I understand that reaching out to a therapist can be daunting, especially if you have had difficulties with other services in the past. I have a particular passion for working with members of the LGBQ, Trans, and Nonbinary communities to challenge internalized transphobia and homophobias. I am also skilled at working with people who experience anxiety, depression, BPD, and other challenges with mental health, and I love to work with youth and kids.

Are you hoping to live a more satisfying and fulfilling life? Are you ready for change? It takes a lot of courage to reach out and ask for help. You are already on your way to making your first step, and I would like to support you on this journey. You may be struggling to cope with a traumatic past, looking for help to manage feelings of sadness and/or anxiety, seeking aid in managing a relationship with a significant person in your life, or experiencing another personal struggle. If this sounds like you, you have come to the right place.

You’ve lost sight of who you are, what you want, and what matters to you. You feel unmotivated. You worry a lot. On a deep level, you feel alone. Your sadness and stress are valid responses. Your experiences are part of being human and you’re not alone in feeling this way.

Do you feel like you’re trapped in a cycle? Maybe your identity and relationships seem complicated or stuck in place, or you’re struggling through a time of major change. Perhaps you feel like you can't meet expectations or that the people around you don't understand you. Working through these experiences in a supportive environment can help you see complex situations more clearly or make them feel more manageable. Our work together will be collaborative—whether that involves resolving conflict, learning new coping skills, or better understanding your experiences and relationships.

I am honoured to work with you on your journey to find healing, resolution, and strength in those places we get stuck sometimes. I specialize in helping individuals, with past trauma (abuse, PTSD), relationship issues (parenting, couples), mental health (stress, anxiety, depression, etc), and life transitions. I specialize in tailoring counselling to meet you where you're at.
