If finding a counsellor that really "gets" mental health and how hard life can be is something that is important to you, we definitely could be a good fit! I have both personal experience and formal education with religious trauma, bariatric weight loss, and ADHD; among other life struggles including depression and anxiety.
I am passionate about creating safe spaces for individuals who feel that they don’t fit in or are never good enough, along with those who consider themselves to be misfits, hot messes, depressed, anxious, those who misuse substances/alcohol or who just want to figure out who they are. Counselling can be scary, but if you're ready to take this first step, I'll walk beside you. If you want "normal" (wait, what is that anyway?) and authentic, you've found the right gal. I tend to be straight forward, simple and will integrate all the fancy therapy words into something that can be understood in your own personal life.

My areas of special interest and expertise include Depression, Anxiety, Sport Psychology, Concussion Treatment and Baseline Testing, Eating Disorders, and weight loss.
There are problems . . . and there are solutions, and sometimes it's just nice to talk through them! I am not your typical psychologist. I don't work in a stuffy office and you won't lay down on a couch. I help you develop the skills and abilities necessary to move forward and conquer your problems. By helping people identify the things they wish to have changed in their lives and further develop the skills they already have, I help clients construct a concrete vision for themselves and make that vision a reality. I help you find solutions!

Are you someone who knows how you want to eat and how you want to eat but get stuck somewhere between what you want to put into your mouth and what you actually put into your mouth? Do you see your relationship to food as an emotional expression of what is going on inside of you? I support my clients in getting in touch with their physical hunger cues and then the emotional, spiritual hungers that arise as a result. I have been there. I've done retreats on my eating and my thesis on how we use our body to express internal struggles. There is a you waiting to get out to stand tall and shine. Food & eating can actually be the way out.

I work with adults experiencing a range of issues including grief, depression, anxiety, emotion regulation issues, life changes and transitions, cancer diagnoses, disordered eating, chronic pain, trauma, perfectionism, procrastination, and self worth or esteem issues. I like to start with a complete initial general assessment to deep dive in getting to understand you, and from there, we co-create a treatment plan with goals of what we want to address together. My availability is limited to only being able to connect once every 3-8 weeks, but I am available long term as needed. I give extra resources to review/try between sessions.

You are not alone. At REACH we build real connections with real people walking through our door. Humor, genuine compassion and empathy are necessary for healing-especially the humor part-and combined together, they create a healing force! We know that sometimes, life is just hard. It can come out of nowhere, but know that counselling helps during the tough times. It helps us endure when we don’t think we can, helps us recover from what we’ve survived, teaches us how to gain insight about who we are and find our way back to "our normal" when we feel lost and alone. We are here for you.

Many people who struggle with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress, feel embarrassed or stigmatized. Others who struggle with domestic violence, relationship issues, faith based struggles, addiction issues, suicidal ideations, and anger management issues feel alone and unsure of who they can speak to. The foundation of my counselling practice is being compassionate and non-judgmental. I provide a person-centred practice which is about the client defining their own goals. I assure my clients they are in a safe place, confidentiality upheld, validated, and their life story and experiences honoured.

I am a Registered Psychologist currently accepting new clients for counselling and psychological assessment services. In my counselling practice, I believe that self-awareness and self-understanding are fundamental for empowerment and change. I endeavor to apply a collaborative approach with each client in order to build a shared understanding of themselves and the concerns that they bring to each session. I recognize that understanding in itself does not always result in the desired change, and work to address barriers to client goals using trauma-informed interventions.

How do you find the best counsellor for you? This is a difficult choice and often being open and communicating with your counsellor will ensure optimal healing. I come from an acceptance of where you are in your journey. I do not believe the goal of counselling is “counselling itself”, but to find a way to move forward in your journey. "To feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health” (Bessel Van der Kolk, 2014).

Society used to look at mental health issues as something to be ashamed of, but we don't have to any more. Mental health, like physical health, is something that absolutely everyone must work at to feel good. It's rewarding work, but it isn't always easy. Traumatic events or even just daily struggles can sometimes lead to addictions, poor relationships with others, or strong feelings of disconnection and worthlessness. The resources we need to stay balanced, to grow, and to feel whole are within each of us, but sometimes we have trouble finding them on our own.

Imagine a space where you are fully listened to, a place where you can talk about the things you need to and not be judged for it. Each person struggles sometimes, that is normal. With therapy, those struggles may become smaller and easier. I listen carefully to spot and highlight the places that you are doing well. We work through where you want to go and the best way to get there. You then take these skills that you've learned so that you can solve future struggles that you may encounter.
