I have passion for counselling and can offer a professional approach to stress management, depression, anxiety, family&couple relationship issues using modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally focus therapy (EFT) and other therapeutic approaches to help you live a happier, more meaningful and goal oriented life.
We all want to be happy, enjoy life, feel good, and have successful career and healthy relationships. Unfortunately, we sometimes experience trauma or severe life stressors. When this happens; it is not uncommon for our lives to unravel; happiness and enjoyment are then replaced by sadness, emotional pain, frustration and loneliness. We feel hurt and want relief.

Hello! My name is Krystle, and I appreciate you stopping by :). In therapy, we often explore life experiences, how they shape us, and guide our journey.

Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, overwhelming thoughts or emotions, help with school or work, or daily life pressures, feeling connected and understood is what most of us seek.

Some people have been dealt a difficult hand in life which can make pushing forward seem impossible. Challenges like anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and relational issues can be hard to navigate alone. I believe each person has the ability and skill to be able to help themselves. It's my role to help support people in that process. My job is not to “fix”, but to guide and assist you with becoming your best self. I have worked in both clinical and community settings with individuals, families, children, and youth from various ages and backgrounds and have learned much about the strength of the people I have worked with.

I use an eclectic and evidence-based approach to help individuals cope with anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, relationship conflicts, self-esteem, and PTSD/trauma.
The process of distinguishing between the root causes of pain and suffering can be complex and may evolve over time. It's crucial to maintain compassion and openness throughout therapy to support your journey toward self-growth and healing. For individuals who have experienced trauma, it's essential to acknowledge the impact of trauma on their interpretations of events. Trauma can color one's perception of reality, and addressing trauma may be a crucial step in differentiating between circumstances and interpretations. Asking for help is the most courageous thing you can do for yourself.
