Did life just throw more than one lemon at you? Perhaps you got hit with ten, and now there are just too many to make lemonade and you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, sad/lonely, and falling apart. I hear you. I see you…and I want to help. I specialize in helping people feel better by using techniques that are supported by facts and research. I help clients gain a deeper understanding of how small changes in their thinking can have a significant impact on their mood and behaviour. We'll also have an opportunity to discuss short-term and long-term goals and how we would get there together.

Do you find yourself constantly trying to please others, bending over backwards to make everyone else happy at the expense of your own needs and desires? Do you say yes, when you want to say no? Are you afraid of disappointing someone or causing conflict? Do you put everyone else's needs ahead of your own, leaving yourself empty & unfulfilled? Do you fill your days with endless tasks and events, believing that staying busy, will make you feel more alive? Do you fear quiet moments...where your thoughts & feelings may catch up with you, forcing you to confront reality?

Mindfulness based psychotherapy is a powerful approach to healing that is based on the ancient wisdom of how to work with our own minds. Mindfulness is defined by paying attention, with intention, in the present moment, without judgment. Clients who practice mindfulness skills share that their lives are more positive, they have an enhanced sense of well-being and better relationships all around. In Mindfulness Psychotherapy, I work with clients to support their development of moment-by-moment awareness by teaching a variety of skills and techniques, which will aid in their development.
