Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to explore the challenges you are facing in a safe, non-judgmental space. As you share your experiences, we will be looking for adaptive and maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling and/or behaving to move in a more helpful direction. I may ask questions that lead to better understanding of your current struggles and potential solutions. Increasing awareness and understanding of emotions and body sensations may also help to live a more integrated and authentic life.

Using talk-based therapy and psychotherapy modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Ego State Interventions with EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Gestalt Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and clinical hypnotherapy, among others, I help individuals, couples, and families understand their feelings, moods, and behaviours to improve their overall well-being.

Individual therapy is focused on your unique needs and goals. Individual therapy includes learning about your history and life experiences then establishing goals to accomplish in counselling.

It is our belief that the best therapy comes from helping to heal the roots that cause those stuck points. Through this we can create lasting change.

My role as your therapist is to assist you to explore, reflect and accept yourself. From the safe haven of therapy you probe what you feel, know and maybe fear. It is an in-depth conversation with me but even more with yourself. Through this you reach new perspectives: awareness, feelings, thoughts, intentions plus better understandings of what has happened in your life. From there you can make changes towards healthier actions - calmer and in a more balanced, assertive position in relation to others and yourself. Such personal learning can certainly be done without a therapist - they just assist. Like hiring any consultant, it should certainly be you who is in charge of this journey.

Psychotherapy with me involves understanding how your life (family, trauma, relationships) has created beliefs, fears and sensitivities that affect your emotions, thought patterns and choices today.

Anybody can do counselling, but it takes skill to be a therapist. Clients who come to me find they do most of the talking. My role is to listen, try to understand what you are thinking and feeling, and reflect that understanding back to you. I want you to feel deeply heard. I want you to feel someone cares. I do not give you solutions. Rather, I help you find them within yourself.

Psychotherapy is a talk-based therapy in which folks can explore their concerns related to life challenges, stressors, mental health and well-being in a non-judgemental space. I believe that “individual” concerns go beyond the individual and are deeply connected to the way we interact with the world and others. As such, my approach to psychotherapy draws on systemic therapies that focus on broader sociocultural influences, intersections of identity and relational patterns. I value collaboration, authenticity and anti-oppressive practice in the therapeutic space. Contact me for a free consultation to determine if we would be a good fit.

Through a compassionate lens, I help individuals and couples foster a sense of perspective and understanding so they can meet their needs. I strive to make each person feel at ease to openly discuss what is on their mind while integrating various approaches based on the individual needs to get immediate and long-term positive changes. My ultimate hope is to support my clients in developing the confidence and belief in themselves to move through life’s challenges by leaning towards truly self-compassionate actions.

Although I have training in many different modalities of treatment, I believe strongly that the critical factor in deciding which approach to use, is you. My approach in integrated, so while the theory may guide some of my thinking and planning about how to help you, your own wisdom, experiences, and capacities help me to develop strategies that you can learn in the counselling room, and then put into practice in the real world. Safely. Thoughtfully.

Some people avoid counseling because of stigmatization and fear of the unknown. By using the Bio-Social model it allows a full assessment which will guide the therapy in a structured manner and give the individual a goal to work towards. As well it allows me to start therapy where the individual is by building trust and understanding while giving them alternatives to acceptance and change. There is no more guessing or wondering what to expect because you are the driver of the vehicle and I am a passenger who will ask questions that may help guide you onto better things. Therapy sessions provides the individual an opportunity to become aware of their own well-being.

During our sessions, you will slowly reveal different parts of yourself that have been buried, and we will work on integrating them so that you can operate from your strongest possible self. We will work through any trauma that may be holding you back. There is freedom and ease around the corner, and it all starts with a simple email or phone call.

I commonly provide support for trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and crisis of meaning or purpose. I often work with individuals who are seeking to better understand themselves and also value personal growth as part of the therapeutic journey. In sessions this often looks like a holistic approach to exploring an understanding of concerns from various perspectives. Through a process of self-exploration and dialogue, I support clients with developing practical insights and solutions to real-life concerns. I engage a holistic and depth approach, drawing primarily from an integration of my training in relational, psychodynamic, somatic, and attachment-based approaches to therapy.

Psychotherapy, ie, “psychodynamic”, differs from counselling or ‘coaching’: focus and goal is deeper "structural" personality/'self' changes; more about ‘how to be’ for life vs ‘what to do’ in specific situations (although this DOES happen). It engages us on 'core' emotional-sensory levels, exploring and healing hurts, confusion, strong negative reactions, troubled relationships, that result from traumas and neglect (eg, abandonment, violence, family disruptions) occurring at vulnerable childhood stages that have become ‘internalized’. This approach empowers one by fostering awareness about inner states and processes interfering with affirmative personal ‘agency’/choices, health- vitality.
