Find a Therapist in Grunthal, Manitoba.

I work from a person centred, family systems, & attachment base in psychotherapy. Our early childhood attachment relationships impact us throughout our lifespan. Sometimes we develop strategies to protect ourselves in childhood which can become challenging to us as we move into adulthood; my approach to psychotherapy intentionally addresses these early childhood patterns. In psychotherapy you will also experience a deeper understanding of yourself, develop new levels of functioning - including a growing capacity to self-regulate, along with a purposeful & safe therapeutic relationship.

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.

As natural story-tellers, many people find relief in simply sharing their experiences. There's healing in being known, understood, and responded too, and that's an important part of what I offer as a therapist. Sometimes people find parts of their story difficult to understand or reconcile, resulting in confusion or even a sense of 'stuckness'. We are complex humans living in a complex and difficult world. It is my desire to not only help you tell and understand your personal story, but also assist you in transforming that story in those areas you desire to see change and healing.

My goal in therapy is to help you explore your thoughts, feelings, & life experiences. I hope to guide you toward self-understanding, growth and change. There are real solutions to your struggles. These are the values I hold in helping you. 1. There is hope for a better future. We will find the solutions 2. You are in charge and know what is best for you 3. You are a person worthy of acceptance, compassion and respect. We will build a relationship on this foundation. 4. You're able to learn new ways of coping, relating to others, & building a better future. 5. You have problems, but also strengths we will build on 6. I'll be honest with you and guide you toward insight, growth & real change.
