Often when someone is looking for a counsellor they feel overwhelmed or confused about how to feel better. The counselling process can help you sort out your feelings and thoughts, consider what might be helpful for you, and work toward creating change that will help you to experience a greater sense of wellness in your life. Some issues that we can address include: the loss of a loved one, your health, or other part of yourself; going through a life transition; relationship issues; stress, anxiety, worry, or depression; trauma - such as motor vehicle, medical, or relational.

Resolution! Not just management ! In a safe and confidential environment, I use various techniques to reduce / eliminate the emotional charge on painful topics so you can begin to work on deeper issues that, when resolved (not 'managed') will change your life! You will begin to feel better and function better, without anger, anxiety, depression, fear and the negative effects of stress and trauma! I use psychological techniques, body processes and energy work to clear the issues that limit you. How does it get even better than that?

My clients are regular people who find themselves stuck - emotionally (negative emotions), personally (self-esteem), or relationally (conflict/communication). I work with my clients to help them experience freedom in these areas. My clients get results quickly because I use a proven system guaranteed to get them unstuck. Skeptical? That's okay, because I have a money-back satisfaction guarantee. I offer that because I know that if you can understand the underlying dynamics of your emotions, then change can start during the first session. Free consultation! You have nothing to lose, and only your freedom to gain. Call today!

What if you could improve the quality of your life and your relationships by changing the way you think, feel and behave? I work with adults who struggle with anxiety, self esteem, stress, and anger issues, to do just that. I help individuals become aware of the thought patterns that keep them stuck and prevent them from living their life to the fullest. I show people how their thoughts, emotions and behaviours are linked and provide the necessary skills to change negative habits that have become normal over time.

I've been practicing since 1995 & I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor & Marriage & Family Therapist. However, I am now only accepting individual clients 18+. It's clear to me that we can all struggle, even if we are successful in other areas of our lives. Life can be unpredictable & the stress & demands of everyday life, work & relationships can take its toll. As stressors build, you may find yourself struggling with anxiety, mood, eating, body image issues or turning to addictive behaviours. You may also find that unresolved grief or past trauma keeps seeping into your daily life & especially when you least want or expect it.

I help teens, young adults and parents whose life feels limited by past experiences, shame, self criticism, anxiety and/or depression. Whether you are looking for short term counselling (emotional support and some help to get back on your feet), more in depth therapy (changing longer existing patterns of how you behave and relate with yourself and others), or emotional intelligence coaching (to improve yourself personally or professionally), I can help. My clients are from very varied backgrounds and ages, however I do specialize in working with health care professionals, first responders, and young adults.

I find joy in supporting people in various stages of life; in particular, those who have decided to heal longstanding wounds from childhood trauma and want to process their past and find peace. I also love supporting women in their post partum period, who are experiencing anxiety and/or depression. I have a particular passion for working with adolescents and young adults with mental health issues, who are exploring and developing their identity.

My work as a therapist is informed by human resilience and our intrinsic drive to heal. I believe that we are oriented towards growth, and the integration of trauma, life experience and pain is the doorway to actualization. I see therapy as a tool for becoming, it is process of unfolding, discovering and meeting yourself. This work can be challenging: struggle is part of the human experience, however, so is transformation, connection, and change. I work closely with those who have experienced trauma, disordered eating and body image issues, and anxiety and depression.

I can help you find the answers you are looking for. I believe that the healing and discovery process begins with an authentic connection. I provide a warm, welcoming and knowledgeable space. You do not have to do this alone.

Life can brings unexpected changes: Relationships come to an end; There may be Infidelity, failure, and disappointments. For those who value spirituality and faith there is a loss of hope. Alcohol and/or drug issues take control. If any of this resonates with you it may be a good time to consider counselling. I have a passion for people who struggle with chronic anxiety, aging gracefully, faith issues, addictions, depression, and relationship strife. I also have good understanding of the complicated world of blended families, those who struggle with work/family balance, and men who struggle with gaming/porn addictions.
