Psychotherapy is an opportunity to discover parts of yourself that you feel have been lost, hurt or unheard. Psychotherapy takes many different forms, but you can expect to be heard, respected, valued and met with curiosity and compassion. My approach to psychotherapy is person centred, meaning that the client chooses the pace and the direction, while the therapist provides gentle guidance and encouragement to move deeper into understanding and self-compassion.

I embrace uniqueness and everyone's experiences ARE unique, they're ours. I approach each client with uniqueness and authenticity. I like to apply psychodynamic counselling and empowerment strategies to aid in better understanding our experiences and feelings while striving to build our voices and assert ourselves in the present and the future.

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.

As an eclectic therapist I offer assistance that supports learning of new ways of thinking that gets reinforced through experimental behaviour that is rich in meaning to clients. This cognitive behavioural therapy is woven within a humanistic, culturally sensitive frame. Some of the learning includes sharing simple techniques that can gently and safely regulate emotions and the inhibit the sympathetic nervous system to reduce overwhelm and dial down anxiety.
