The clients who choose to work with me all want change, and I believe the path forward lies within us. I have experience working specifically with depression, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, coping, infidelity, shame, and anger. I have supported clients ranging from high school-aged adolescents to senior populations. Our goals together can involve harnessing stronger emotional regulation, improving self-esteem, understanding the deeper meaning of behaviours and thought processes, or even decision making. Progress is a matter of reconciling what we possess inside to move ourselves forward.

Life is a journey of constant change, filled with ups and downs. At times, it can feel unsettling and overwhelming. As we transition back to "normal" life after COVID, feelings of fear, anxiety, stress, anger, guilt and shame may be heightened. Are you lacking energy and motivation? Are you dealing self-doubt and finding it hard to make the right decisions? In your relationships, do you struggle to feel heard and understood? Feeling disconnected from your true self is a difficult reality to face, but know that there are solutions to every problem.

Have you ever wondered why, despite all your efforts, some emotional problems or conflicts fail to heal? I believe dysregulation is at the heart of the problem. Crying uncontrollably, racing thoughts or spacing out, flying into rage or shutting down, are all examples of dysregulation. If you've tried therapy before but you're still struggling, it's likely that traditional therapy like CBT, which does not effectively address the nervous system response to stress, has left you still reacting in these old ways. Sensorimotor somatic psychotherapy works directly with the nervous system to down regulate anxiety and upregulate depression.
