Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion

Good for you! Change isn’t always easy but it’s always worth it when you are headed in the direction of who you are meant to be.

I help you get out of your mind… and into your body ;) Your body is where your memories/emotions are stored AND where healing longstanding stress patterns happens… so we might as well begin there. I specialize working with people who have complex trauma, grief, and anxiety/burnout. I have over 25 years of experience working in mental health and natural health. I offer a holistic approach (mind/body/spirit) to mental health and give you tools that work to help you shift your long seated patterns. I run my signature therapy group: Emotional Literacy to help you learn from your emotions, rather than being dominated by them.

Life can be unpredictable and when our connections shift quickly self-doubt, a lack of confidence in our abilities, psychic pain and feeling stuck or unsure of which direction to move in.
Whether you're experiencing a transition, a loss or feeling a sense of being lost and craving deeper meaning you are not alone. Anxiety, depression, chronic pain, loneliness, grief, a sense of disappointment or endings of all manner can throw us off balance. Add more than one and we can genuinely be struggling and it may be difficult for others to see the reasons for our withdrawal or anxious behaviours. There can be no judgment in the therapeutic relationship, which honours your inner strength, hopes to draw forth your resilience and begin to find your way through challenging landscapes and into deeper connections that enrich us.

Then, self-compassion soothes and brings a sense of warmth and comfort to all areas of life.
Change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.

I see clients who struggle with existential crises, anxiety/depression, career and relationship struggles, parenting concerns, lack of motivation or confidence, or people who simply seek greater clarity, depth or direction in life.
As a philosophical therapist, I offer a supportive environment in which to explore your thoughts and emotions, as well as stimulating dialogue in which you will strengthen your ability to face challenges by using creative and deeply reflective thinking. The idea is to think big and come at problems from a fresh and sometimes surprising perspective. I also help problem-solve at the level of habits, when it's time to put our philosophical reflections into practice and make desired changes at the level of daily living. The goal is to discover a greater sense of possibility and to use that to live with greater clarity and authenticity.

I offer support for a variety of topics you may be struggling with – relationships, trauma, life transitions, work life, sex, emotional regulation and more.
Are your loved ones telling you you’re cold or have no emotions? Are you angry or resentful, but not sure what to do with those emotions? You might be feeling alone and like you have to put on an act to seem like you have your “stuff” together for the people around you. Maybe you’re struggling with infidelity or sexual urges outside of your primary relationship and don't quite know what to do with these or how they fit into your life. We’ve been taught our value is based on our competence and ability to provide, which has lead to parts of our human experience as men not being welcomed – sadness loneliness, sexuality to name a few.

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.
