Making the choice to find support can be a challenging decision that takes courage. We all face challenges in our lives and a qualified practitioner’s guidance can help you better understand your current situation and empower you towards reaching your goals and healing. I have a particular interest in working with individuals who are facing issues of trauma, PTSD, C-PTSD; however, I work with a variety of concerns, such as depression, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, chronic pain, stress and burnout, TBI, life transitions and support. I believe in trying to find and treat the root problem to facilitate change and improve wellbeing.

Waitlist for new clients
Wait list only at this time. Are you looking to get a deeper understanding and heal from the various difficulties you are experiencing? Psychotherapy that involves the mind-body connection can help with this. It can release any accumulated stress or blockages that might be affecting your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. This can help you reconnect with your self in many ways and better understand your emotions, needs and wants. I also provide psychotherapy for psychedelic integration to those who had psychedelic treatments and wish to make sense of and integrate their experiences.

Life events can shake you, affecting you mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. These experiences can colour how you see yourself and others, impacting relationships and work. Dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or coping challenges doesn't define you or limit your potential. "You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending."-C.S. Lewis. A bit of support from a therapist might help. If you’re ready to feel like yourself again and create a better life, let’s work together to tap into your resiliency, find your voice, and regain control.

I have specialized training in: marital/relationship/family conflicts, traumatic brain injuries, impulse control, and Cluster B personality issues.
Change is a difficult and humbling process. Being patient, kind, and forgiving of ourselves is not usually something we learned as children. Talk therapy is not advice or guidance: it's learning to hear your own decision-making processes, noticing feelings and what needs your trying to meet, discovering your value systems, and moving forward with small deliberate changes. Together in session we will tailor the work we do to suit your specific concerns. Researching therapists, going to therapy, looking at our least helpful patterns, or deliberating on whether to stay or leave a difficult situation takes courage. I congratulate you.

When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?

People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.

What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?

Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilisation, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counselling.

How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?

The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.

What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?

If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
