I primarily use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) to support individuals, couples and families to get the supportive relationships they need to be safe, secure and grow in life. EFT is designed to provide opportunities to express vulnerable emotions to loved ones so that one can be clearly understood and valued by the most important people in your life. Even in individual therapy, there are powerful techniques used to safely access unacknowledged (often painful) emotions in connection to oneself and others. EFT is based on our knowledge of the importance of close bonds with others and has over 20 years of research that verifies its success. Call me for a confidential consult.

I take a positive based approach in my counselling. I believe that lasting change happens when you draw out the truths within yourself and your relationships. I do not treat people as problems, as people are people and problems are problems. I do not like lables; I believe people are a lot more than what they may be currently struggling with. I seek to understand the full context of a person, rather than just focusing on a specific issue. I am a Registered Psychotherapist.

My psychotherapy approach is very individualized and considers each client as unique. I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental and respectful collaborative relationship.

I view psychotherapy as a way to help gain understanding, clarity and a different perspective. When we adjust or shifting our perspectives, explore our inner resources, and identify our challenges, we start the journey to a more fulfilling life. I believe in collaboration and a nonjudgmental partnership. With the goal to ultimately help clients to define their own version of success, create new patterns of behavior and engage fully in their lives.

I embrace a strengths-based philosophy, guided by consistent positive regard for clients and families. Within that context, I utilize an array of clinical practices to best serve clients and families within individual and group formats.

In many cultures, seeking a mentor or counsellor at various times in your life, would be expected and respected. Yet in our culture, we still might feel discomfort about "needing" support from someone outside our family & friends. The people I see are courageous. They choose to use the resources available to improve their quality of life. It's a commitment to yourself and your loved ones that takes time, money and determination. Self-help books can be wonderfully helpful, but something unique and special happens when you meet the right person to bring the principles of unconditional positive regard as well as healing skills to meet you wherever you are.

My approach does not focus on discussing what may be wrong with you, but rather explore your experiences, your strengths, and collectively search for a balance in your life through psychotherapeutic interventions and psychoeducation. If you do not know why you have come to this page but you feel something may be off, please connect. Together we will work on better understanding you. My goal is for my nonjudgmental and inclusive approach to collaborate with you to best meet your needs and life goals through strength-based narrative, solution-focused, emotion-focused, and cognitive-behavioural modalities.

Sustaining and maintain good behaviour, mental health, relationships and social skills can be accomplished with psychotherapy. An individual may experience many troubling thoughts and/or behaviours during their lifetime which may interfere with any relationship in their life and/or just cause disturbances of their well-being. Psychotherapy is provided in an environment where one is allowed to speak freely and voice their concerns in a neutral, confidential and nonjudgmental setting. Both parties collaborate to come up with a solution to the problems one may be experiencing with the aim of eliminating any and all difficulties causing concern.
