Talk therapy provides an opportunity to learn skills that will keep the emotional "trash can" empty and help develop a healthy self. Healthy emotions stimulate the human fueling system promoting positive growth, strength to create solutions and manage life challenges. Maintaining a healthy emotional/spiritual system is as important to life as sustaining a healthy heart. The emotional, physcial and spiritual persons are team players in the "game of life". Each player has a specific position in the game of life and is dependant on the other players to score health and wellness. Ignoring any one of these players for too long will affect their ability to score life goals: happiness, peace.

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.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Many people have ideas about how therapy should look or feel based on what they have seen in movies or tv, and some of those ideas can be scary or intimidating. Therapy should be a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone who offers you empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I believe that clients are the experts in their lives and will work collaboratively with you to explore the stories you hold about yourself and the world around you to find meaning, facilitate change, and highlight your strengths and successes. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

As opposed to many of the behaviourally-based (simple fix) treatments available today, psychotherapy involves going deeper. This might include looking at coping skills or patterns you developed as a child which, though they served you well then, may be getting in the way of your life now. Psychotherapy is less about learning tools, and more about developing insights about oneself and one's loved ones. While many therapies today focus on changing behaviour in the here and now, psychotherapy often involves looking at what may underlie emotional or relational patterns, such as having difficulty saying no, or struggling to trust others. It involves being more honest and authentic with oneself.

As a psychotherapist I use a person-centered approach to helping clients disentangle their thoughts, feelings and behaviours while setting a course toward using these three to move forward in a helpful, more fulfilling way. I make it my goal and empower clients to understand their inner and outer life and story in connection with others, so that they come to feel more confident and secure in their choices; choices that will bring more hope.

Psychotherapy is a journey with a therapist working on the issues that you are concerned with.

With over 12 years of clinical experiences, I humbly and wholeheartedly want to walk this journey with you. I value strongly the rapport between the client and the therapist. I believe in a holistic view of wellbeing and emphasize in cultivating the mind wellness. I offer integrative approaches to meet your needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out and start to make the change now.

Psychotherapy has been found to be an effective form of aiding in your health & well-being. My goal is to help you to optimize your overall health as mental/emotional/spiritual wellness plays a key role in your physical well-being. I believe that the difficulties and challenges that you are struggling with are a normal and understandable reaction to damaging circumstances that you have been through. With my guidance and support I encourage you to explore these areas in your life that have been influenced and tap into your unique and innocent talents and strengths to work to overcome the harmful effects of those circumstances. I draw on a variety of approaches to meet your unique needs.

There are many things which cause us distress and prevent us from achieving our preferred quality of life. These can include a variety of feelings, thoughts, beliefs, reactions, confusion, past or present situations, etc. You can more easily think about, and choose, your preferred ways of living, by getting clear about what's going on, how you're being affected, and your usual responses. I delight to help in this kind of process: it can be a way of making things which are invisible, visible; things which are unspoken, clear; even things which were un-thought of, possible.

Psychotherapy is a talk therapy with proven research and evidence-based interventions. It is a confidential and safe space where clients can explore different aspects of their emotional pain with an empathic counselor. As a Master Level psychotherapist, I have educational training and clinical experience in Family Systems and Psychoeducation. Combining these two methods gives me a comprehensive and in-depth awareness of assisting individuals, couples, and families through their growth journey. Through the initial assessment, I will help you establish goals for therapy that are practical and achievable. Psychotherapy is a safe space to explore your any challenges you are facing.

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.

I offer a safe space for clients to reach their full potential through a therapeutic relationship that is based on the clients goals. Clients will be able to discover new things about themselves and find new ways to confront any struggles that they may be facing. Through psychotherapy clients often find their strengths and new insights that lead them closer to a fulfilled life.

I suspect you are reading this because you are wanting to understand yourself more and because you know you have some healing to do! Perhaps a close friend or relative has lovingly suggested (or maybe not so lovingly?!) that you need to get working on your issues, the things that are interfering with you moving forward into more satisfying relationships with others, yourself and God. After almost 30 years of counselling individuals and families, I still count it a privilege to be able to help people make sense of their unique story and to find ways to grow and change and become the person they were meant to be! I would be delighted to help you!!
