We use psychotherapy to help clients identify and change negative thoughts, unhealthy core beliefs, and troubling expressions of emotions which effect and distort behaviours. Through psychotherapy we promote adaptive ways of thinking and coping that are beneficial and unique to the needs of the client. It is a way to support the client to meet their goals and live a more fulfilled, happy life.

Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help you improve and maintain positive mental health and well-being. I work with individuals, couples and families in individual and group settings. Psychotherapy occurs when the Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.

I believe therapy is about discovering yourself with greater compassion, not fixing something that's broken. My approach is holistic, trauma-informed, and rooted in Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and attachment-based principles. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a special education teacher, which deepened my appreciation for every person's unique experiences and strengths. Together, we'll explore what has shaped you, build self-trust, and create meaningful change that supports healthier relationships and a more authentic life.

Life is a journey and we are presented with various challenges along the way. Sometimes we find a path forward and sometimes we get stuck and need guidance and support. Psychotherapy can be an opportunity for you to connect with a trained professional to explore the challenges you are experiencing and to discover new tools and perspectives. As a psychotherapist, I support you on your journey by creating a relationship with you that’s built on safety, openness, and trust. I also help you to discover the resilience that you hold and I support you in strengthening or re-defining the relationships within your life.
