Are you feeling stuck and discouraged? Are you feeling worried all the time or sad and lacking energy? Maybe you are in a relationship that lacks the love and passion you once knew, and you long to get it back to what it once was. Whatever your reason for seeking counselling, taking the first step is sometimes the hardest. I want to make that process as comfortable as possible.


BACKGROUND/ AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Not all psychologists have extensive training in effectively helping couples; however, this is an expertise that I offer.With a Master’s of Science in Marital and Family Therapy at Loma Linda University, I’ve acquired an excellent education and experience in working with couples and families.  Since beginning this career, couples work has been a significant focus, and I have found Emotion-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method have been received very well by clients.We talk through important issues in session, using new methods, and “homework” is given, in order to restore the feeling of connection and friendship that are essential for a lasting relationship.
 
For several years, I have also worked with individuals to tackle some of the most common areas of concern, particularly anxiety and depression.Your struggles are important, and though you may feel hopeless and afraid, there is hope, and there are proven ways to overcome these obstacles that often seem overwhelming.
 
Further to the above issues, I also have experience and success providing short-term and long-term therapy for stress, grief, anger, self-esteem, codependence, life transitions, and spiritual issues. If you choose, I am happy to integrate
spirituality into your treatment.
 
Feel free to send any questions through email before booking an appointment to begin the process toward a more whole life.


APPROACH
My goal as a therapist is to work together with you to accomplish the goals you bring to our sessions, and am committed to providing a non-judgmental and empathetic space, while earning your trust. 
 
You have a unique story – with strengths and values that are important to you; let’s work together to write the future
you're desiring to live. I am a genuine, non-judgmental therapist that believes there is always hope!
 
You can find me at Kells Counselling  (www.kellscounselling.ca) in the South East side of the city, on the corner of Ellerslie Road and 91st Street.
