Find a Therapist in Windsor, Nova Scotia.

Come sit in my cozy, peaceful office. Kick off your shoes and curl up on my couch with something warm to drink. We’re in this together. You can slow down, breath deep and settle in to unload about all that has been going on. This time is for you. But unlike chatting with a girlfriend, my role is to guide the conversation so growth and transformation can occur. I want to equip you with some skills that are easy to put into practice and that going to make a difference. We’ll try them out in session, and then you can take this new learning and test it out in your life. Even from our first visit, you’ll have the sense that together we are building a new way for you handle the hard stuff

Patterns of self-sabotaging behavioural, disorganized thinking and overwhelming emotion make life very difficult. How can we move forward when our bodies seem to betray us and we just need a break from the buzzing anxiety or the numbing of depression? What you may not know is all these symptoms are the imprint of our unfinished business, stuck in the body and just begging to be seen, cared for and accepted. Working with me means looking with curiosity, compassion and an educated-eye at how old wounds of betrayal, abandonment and rejection show up to block living your best life. You are not alone and there is hope.

Psychotherapy, also called psychological counselling, can help in the treatment of mental health concerns, with or without a diagnosis. Common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, difficulty managing emotions, loss, and many others can be helped through psychotherapy. As a registered counselling therapist candidate, I can help you to explore these issues more deeply and learn to better manage symptoms, all in a safe, casual, non-judgmental atmosphere.

Sometimes you may need help sorting through your thoughts, especially those that are not helpful or causing you outright distress. That's where psychotherapy comes in. Using empathy, reflective listening, and the occasional gentle challenge, I can help you identify and process your thoughts and emotions with the goal of improving and maintaining your mental health and well-being.

There are many benefits to psychotherapy such as cultivating self-awareness, reframing experiences, building self-confidence, enhancing communication, navigating conflict and improving health and well-being. Individuals may seek brief psychotherapy to resolve situational discord or disturbances, while others experience challenges that take much longer to unpack and resolve. Job insecurity, family conflict, identity confusion, and addiction may lead to depression, anger, anxiety, isolation, and despair. Liz believes that although we may flounder or fail, psychotherapy provides a safe space and unconditional support to overcome adversity and lead a flourishing life.
