Utilizing person-cantered and different therapy modalities I can help you find inner strength and build resilience. I support my clients in recovering from trauma in order to thrive in life. I utilize narrative therapy, psychodynamic therapies, narrative therapy, existential therapy, CBT, Gestalt, solution-foccused and many more. My primary focus is building an empathetic relationship as well as modelling authenticity. In the first sessions my hope is to help you feel accepted and safe. I also counsel my clients on their path to building resilience and finding coping skills

In the therapeutic relationship the relationship itself is what matters most because, without the relationship, recovery and progress would not be possible. I am a client centered, compassionate, and passionate counsellor who values the integrity of the therapeutic relationship (alliance). Clients will benefit becauase of the therapeutic relationship along with their own desire and commitment to learn and make progress. Through the therapeutic relationship there is hope, opportunity, transparency and growth. Psychotherapy is successful due to the therapeutic relationship. This therapeutic alliance is proven to be 85% of the process leaving the other 15% for processing and healing.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

My approach is to work collaboratively with clients using a holistic model of therapy which entails a blending of Eastern and Western modalities. For example, training in meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, proper exercise, a nutritious, science-based diet and maintaining proper sleep hygiene. Also, including talk therapy can then help to reveal core values and issues. Mindfulness training benefits clients in observing clearly thoughts and behaviours. Clients benefit greatly through the use of evidence based interventions by developing the skills needed to evaluate thought patterns and overcome destructive patterns.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

My approach to therapy is inspired by the teachings of Carl Rogers, who believed that the most effective way to help individuals was through a warm, empathetic, and understanding relationship. I create a safe space for my clients to be open, honest, and vulnerable, allowing them to work through their challenges and find their own answers within themselves.  I use a holistic and integrative approach, drawing from a range of therapies, including eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), ego states theory, somatic approaches, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, resonance and more.

Are you feeling lost and alone? Struggling with overwhelming thoughts and emotions? If you're ready to take control of your mental well-being and find a path to healing, therapy can help. As a psychotherapist, I understand how difficult it can be to cope with feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress. With support and guidance, you can learn to manage these feelings and create a happier, more fulfilling life. Together, we will work on a personalized treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals. I use powerful techniques and a warm, empathetic approach to help my clients gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and provide them with the tools they need to succeed.
