I take a positive based approach in my counselling. I believe that lasting change happens when you draw out the truths within yourself and your relationships. I do not treat people as problems, as people are people and problems are problems. I do not like lables; I believe people are a lot more than what they may be currently struggling with. I seek to understand the full context of a person, rather than just focusing on a specific issue. I am a Registered Psychotherapist.

Psychotherapy with me is not about managing symptoms — it is about transformation. This work is for people who are not satisfied with simply adapting to life’s stressors but are ready to evolve. My approach is relational, cognitive-science-informed, and deeply existential. Together, we look beyond strategies and explore how your internal systems — emotional, relational, and cognitive — have been shaped by your history, your relationships, and your experiences. This is not passive work. It is an engaged process of rediscovering the self, reconnecting with vitality, and transforming the systems that create disconnection, burnout, and emotional stagnation.

If therapy were to be successful for you, what would be different in your life? How would you know that this process was a good use of your time and money? - How you answer those questions is very important, those answers set the (initial) destination as we set out on this journey together. Client directed therapy means that your goals are the compass that guides our work, and we will regularly check in to assess what is working and not working in helping you reach those goals. Every client is different, and our work will be built on proven modalities and techniques, while also being specific to you.

As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. Gestalt focuses on awareness, contact and authenticity, it will help being relational.
