I offer counselling to children, adolescents and adults, as well as couples and families, in Canada.

 

I work with those experiencing various life stressors, including (but not limited to):

• Depression, anxiety, attention deficit/hyperactivity, codependency, relationship issues, new life events (ex. Postpartum), work related stress, relationship stressors, trauma, anger, medical diagnosis support, life transitions, parenting support, communication issues, food concerns, emotional regulation, first responder counselling, health care workers, grief and loss, unresolved issues, self-esteem, shame, women's concerns (ex. pms, pmdd), differing spirituality than as raised/family practices, and workplace concerns.

 

My preferred modalities are EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Gottman Couples Therapy, Resiliency Approaches, Trauma Informed Practice and Person-centred Care, as well as infusing Dialectical Behavioural Therapy approaches and Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) skills. Of note, I believe strongly (as does research!) that the therapeutic alliance is a key indicator in positive outcomes. Therefore, I strive to create a safe space where you can freely share without judgement.

​

I have a passion for those working in health care, and the related traumas that may be experienced. I'd be honoured to work with you and incorporate what I've learned as a frontline worker to bolster your resiliency and provide support.
