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 integrative, person-centred, and grounded in compassion. I believe that therapy is most effective when it’s collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, goals, and values. I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and mindfulness-based practices. Together, we’ll explore the patterns, beliefs, and emotions that may be keeping you stuck and work to develop practical tools for change. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can build self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and foster self-compassion.

I envision psychotherapy as a growth process. I know the medical model well; I just don't center my therapeutic approach on treating diseases. I treat people. Rather than diagnose-treat-cure, my model is connect-interact-become. It's a personal growth model. The willingnesss to permit a professional to facilitate your personal growth is not a disease; it's an accomplishment.

Psychotherapy focuses on your relationship with yourself. Our most common problems have to do with inner conflict and with being unconscious of what is happening within ourselves. Through psychotherapy you will become aware of how the inner self signals the presence of these problems. Being aware of what is happening within us gives us the basis for making effective choices, relating in genuine ways to others and making positive and powerful choices in our daily lives.

Psychotherapy happens when the right conditions are met that support the psyche to heal and come into congruence. The relationship with the therapist is authentic, meaningful and changes both the therapist and the client. The focus is on emergence of your true self and healing from the confusion, shame and trauma that has caused so much damage to your whole self.

I work from an Emotionally Focused Therapy lens (EFT). In EFT, we explore what’s happening underneath the surface — the emotions, fears, and needs that often drive how we react or withdraw in moments of distress. By understanding these deeper experiences, you can begin to: recognize emotional patterns, make sense of your reactions, build emotional safety, and develop healthier patterns of communication While traditional talk therapy can be beneficial, it is not without its limitations. Being vulnerable with another human being can be incredibly difficult. Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy is a unique and powerful way to explore personal growth and emotional healing with the help of horses.

Talking it out, is one of the best ways in which we as humans are able to process information that is overwhelming us or making life stressful. When we can sit down and speak to a neutral and non-judgement person we can begin to sort things out for ourselves; making life simple instead of complicated. I am here to help you sort out your thoughts and feelings which will help change your perspective and ultimately; your circumstances.

Do you feel stuck and unsure about where to go from here? Is life just not working out the way you hoped or planned? We will work together to figure out what is most important to you, what you want out of life and your relationships, what's been holding you back and what you can do to make healthy changes. I will help you start LIVING and THRIVING - not just existing and surviving.
