When it comes to personal growth I believe that we all have the capacity to feel whole and lead fulfilling lives despite the struggles we experience. In fact, I believe we can grow to accept our life experiences and challenges as opportunities to recognize and refine our unique strengths. I support individuals looking to develop more self-awareness, heal trauma, incorporate healthier coping habits, and gain more connection with their life.

Healthy relationships (including the one with ourselves) are necessary for humans to thrive. What characterizes a healthy relationship, and what influences our ability to participate in them is explored in therapy. Human beings crave attachment and connection but also engage in behaviors that can be hurtful and damaging. Therapy is about healing from the past, learning about boundaries and the process of repair, understanding patterns, self reflection, and working towards goals that are aligned with our values, desires, and needs. I am passionate about working with people of all walks of life who want to create meaningful change.

In a nutshell, what I am all about is connecting to my clients with acceptance and compassion to allow a safe space for them to connect back to themselves. I believe many messages and experiences can leave people very disconnected which can manifest as depression, anxiety, PTSD, addictions, difficult or toxic relationships, loneliness and general unhappiness.

I work with people (MB,SK,AB,BC) of all ages, ethnicities and orientations. Anyone can utilize EMDR and that’s only the beginning of this effective evidence-based modality. EMDR offers clients the ability to find the root of their issue with a trained EMDR therapist within the first few sessions. Thus, giving you back control in a timely manner and no longer having previous traumas impede your daily functioning. Let’s get you back to a healthy mindset so you can move forward on your journey. I am a firm believer that therapy is only temporary and not something long term to the point of reliance. I am a Jordan’s Principle provider.

How effective is treatment for insomnia?

The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?

There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?

There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?

Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
