Have you been distressed for a long time? Are you struggling to adjust to recent events in your life? Or simply, you are looking for opportunities to improve your life… counselling support may provide the help you need. Through counselling, you can work to improve your wellness, free yourself from unhealthy patterns, and develop more effective coping strategies with current and future life challenges.

Carrying around the weight and impacts of trauma, negative self-talk, and heavy suppressed emotions can be physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausting.

It would be an honour to join you on your journey towards self-discovery, healing and wellness by shining light on the power of your vulnerability, resiliency, and strengths.

Therapy can seem like a daunting process, so if you feel this way, know that you are not alone. Whatever has brought you to seek therapy, is valid and worthy of exploration.

In times of uncertainty, we may need a conversation space that enables us to share our most vulnerable thoughts. I offer to hold this space, listen to what is unsaid, and support you in navigating through your concerns.
