Welcome - I’m so glad you’re here. I've been privileged to work with children, adults and families in various settings for over 15 years. I believe everyone deserves to be heard and seen, even if that’s not been their past lived experience. I bring a gentle, trauma informed perspective to my work and I see our time together as a collaborative journey where we explore thoughts, emotions and beliefs in a safe and non judgemental space. Part of working with me can also include broker/advocacy work; meaning I can help you navigate the many complexities in our social and community service system (ie, health care, school system, etc).

Relationships are HARD, right? They certainly can be. This is can be even more true if you've experienced trauma in your earlier years. This earlier trauma can make parenting, marriage, long-term partnership and even friendships feel difficult. At times, when things feel really bad, the depression, anxiety and hopelessness can really set in. You might look at your spouse, your child or even your relationship within yourself and wonder "how did I end up here?". There are ways that you react- it feels like your body reacts way before your brain, and it makes you feel out of control. It would be so nice to feel in control and at ease.

Relationships are at the core of feeling love and belonging. However, when our relationships are functioning poorly we can experience anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, or anger. In this space, we will explore how early life relationships shaped your attachment, communication, and conflict patterns to connect them to the impact they are having in your current life. From there, we can develop healthy new patterns. I also work with couples on their communication, boundaries, intimacy, meeting needs, and trust. Together you will learn to communicate safely and predictably and co-create your ideal intimate life.

One of the most important human needs is to be witnessed — to feel heard, seen, and supported. This is my wish for you. Through the strength of my clients sharing their stories and from my own experiences with repeated miscarriages, fertility treatment and motherhood, I have learned that each person’s story is unique and worth telling. I will support you wherever you are in the spectrum of womanhood—infertility, loss, pregnancy, birth trauma, postpartum, motherhood, and beyond. As a former doula turned therapist, I have spent the last decade supporting women through these vulnerable life stages.

How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?

Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.

How does therapy for infertility issues work?

The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.

What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?

Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.

How long does therapy for infertility issues take?

There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
