Currently Waitlisting New Clients - Are you in a place where something’s not feeling right and it’s time for a change? Perhaps you want to reduce anxiety and stress. Or maybe you’re tired of being held back by feeling “not good enough.” Or you want to improve relationships with friends, loved ones, and co-workers. You might not even be able to put a finger on what’s wrong, but you’ve reached the point where you feel it’s time to reach out for help. You are not alone.

My ideal client is someone who senses that there is more to this life and is ready to reach for it. You may have tried other therapies, psychedelics, tried changing jobs or even changing relationships. You want more peace, joy, connection, and empowerment in your life. You need someone who will listen and empathize with you but also provide challenge and direction in service of your goals. You may also have the sense that traditional talk therapy doesn't work for you. You want to explore pathways to healing and change and are ready to face both the gold and the shadow within.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with life? Are you burning out? If you are experiencing high anxiety right now, you are not alone. You may even notice you are living in the Fight, Flight, or Freeze response. I support clients by helping them learn skills to cope in the moment and getting curious about the roots of pain from the past for true healing. Learning to regulate your body's natural alarm system and process emotions are essential to overall mental health - and we can explore these together.

Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts? Do you have the urge to repeat certain behaviours until “it feels right”? Are you preoccupied and bothered by aspects of your appearance? Are there parts of your home that are too cluttered to use, yet you find it hard to get rid of anything? Do you struggle with body-focused repetitive behaviours like hair-pulling or skin-picking? If you are saying “yes” to any of these questions, you may be dealing with Obsessive-Compulsive and/or a Related Disorder (OCDRs), which includes Hoarding, Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), and Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours (BFRBs).

I am looking for motivated clients who are willing to take action to resolve whatever needs to change in their life. My typical clients are looking for relief from stress, anxiety, depression, negative emotions, or difficult life situations. Some of them are struggling with compulsive behaviours and feel out of control. Others are in a relationship but things are not as good as they can be and they want more. Some of my clients are just looking to talk to someone who listens well, validates them and gives them another perspective. Sometimes they feel stuck and need tools, support and encouragement to help them move forward.

I have a passion for working with individuals with anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I am very open about my own experience with anxiety because I strongly feel like it should be normalized, as the majority of individuals experience a mental health need at some point in their lives; there is absolutely no shame in that. I help my clients reach their goals of mental calm by providing them with a safe environment to explore and unpack their fears. Together, we begin to understand the psychology of where that fear has stemmed from and begin to take steps forward in facing our anxiety and in thriving vs. surviving.

My area of interest in working with couples and individuals is to help them relieve stress and improve their relationships. I help couples to understand the negative cycles that can be damaging and to engage in more effective ways when problems are overwhelming. I help individuals to experience new perspectives on problems as a beginning to making things better. Developing an environment of trust and confidentiality is my primary focus, helping people feel safe in sharing their personal problems. Consider taking the time to spend on yourself and your relationships by booking a virtual appointment.
