We can all agree that sometimes it simply feels good to talk to someone. All the better when we know with absolute confidence that the person we are talking to is not going to judge us. Psychotherapy is, in its purest form, talk therapy. At Uniquely You, therapy does not require an agenda. Instead, the process of therapy is constructed to suit you. It is compassionate, non-judgmental, and realistic; the goal is to help you get on the path of living YOUR best life, whatever that may look like.

A psychotherapy process helps you find emotional support and new insight for your issues, for those bumps in the road that often crop up. Having an empathic, warm, respectful person who points out your blind spots and who listens to you can help you deal –and make sense—of the pressures and challenges you face. I use a blend of Client Centered Counselling, Gestalt Therapy and Family Constellations with cutting edge Energy Psychology Methods –especially EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)—tools to achieve freedom from anxiety, trauma, stress, breakup, grief, abandonment, anger, depression, diagnosis shock and feel calmer, breathe more easily and gain rapid symptom relief.

In a safe, warm, and non-judgmental environment, we can help you to explore a problem you are facing, we can help you to understand it, and we can also help you to better cope with it.

Our approach means that, throughout therapy, you will be treated as a person of worth with a therapist who is genuine and empathic.

Through the use of various therapeutic modalities and interventions, I work with individuals, couples and children to understand and address problematic thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

Psychotherapy is a form of talk therapy that helps you examine your qualities and characteristics aiming to assist you with an enhanced awareness of yourself and your relationships with others in order to foster healthy growth and development. Getting to know one another in the counselling context involves entering into a mutually agreed upon course of counselling specifically designed to assist you in your journey toward recovery, healing and optimal health and functioning. It does take courage and it is important for you to feel comfortable and connect with your counsellor. I look forward to discussing this further with you. Contact me for further information.

My psychotherapy approach is very individualized and considers each client as unique. I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental and respectful collaborative relationship.

Benefits of this psychotherapy approach include experiencing a sense of lightness in daily living, feeling equipped to cope with life's challenges, feeling confident and empowered, and having an overall sense of wellness.

Psychotherapy can mean many things to many people, from help with personal growth, an opportunity to unlearn a bad habit, a quest for insight or improved self-awareness, to a search for meaning in life or the aim of improving self-esteem. Whatever your goal for therapy, together we can discover the ways and means that make most sense to you while you control every step of our journey together. Call me whenever you are ready to embrace the positive changes that therapy has to offer you.

Meeting with a psychotherapist has one primary aim: to share ways of improving and sustaining one's mental health and wellbeing. It may include revisiting past experiences that were impactful; practicing skills and techniques in the present; or talking about ideas and strategies to use in the future. Sometimes, psychotherapy involves having an in-the-moment experience that brings about a profound change of perspective or a new emotional truth. Whichever direction your own psychotherapy takes, we know that the single biggest contributor to a positive counselling experience is your relationship with your therapist. I can help you find the best path forward for you. Reach out today to begin.

I am a transformative and depth psychotherapist. This means that I look beyond the symptoms in order to assist my clients in discovering a more meaningful and fulfilling way to cope with life's inevitable dips and conflicts. It does little long lasting good to treat only the consequences of deeply ensconced processes that we have little knowledge of. While working with me, my clients and I go to where the root cause of their issues reside and gently and safely observe them and understand them with the ultimate goal of gaining control over them.

I believe that working from a client-centred approach is essential in fostering lasting change. As such, I view each client as an expert in their own lives and integrate their goals in the therapeutic process. My approach draws on Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy (therapy through relationship), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and neurophysiological research. I specialize in mental health, addictions, trauma, ABI, depression, anxiety, and other emotion and attention regulation difficulties. I offer short-term counselling and long-term psychotherapy to youth, adults, and couples in groups and individually.

I offer a warm, supportive space where you can be fully yourself. Whether you're facing anxiety, trauma, grief, or life transitions, we start where you are. My approach is collaborative and grounded in compassion, helping you explore patterns, build self-understanding, and develop tools for change. I draw on evidence-based methods tailored to your needs, always honouring your pace and goals. Healing begins with feeling seen and heard—and that’s where we begin.

Psychotherapy is a powerful space for self-discovery, emotional healing, and long-term change. It’s not about fixing you—it’s about uncovering the parts of you that need compassion, support, and room to grow. At Rooted in Resilience, we tailor therapy to your needs, offering tools to help you understand your thoughts, build emotional resilience, and navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity. Whether you’re facing stress, trauma, or simply want to know yourself more deeply, therapy can help you reconnect with your strength and truth.

People come to counselling not because they don't have answers to their problems, people usually know what they should do, but they can't seem to do them. My role as your pschotherapist is less about telling you what to do (which is actually the easier part), I am here to help you clear away some of the junks that stop you from seeing and "doing" the answers. After that, I will help you reach your goal step by step.
