Our psychotherapy services are effective in helping clients meet their goals and live a happier, more meaningful life. Psychotherapy can be brief and solution focused, or more depth oriented, to help you explore the underlying factors causing distress and unhealthy patterns in your life. We will work with you to find the approach that best suits your needs and personality.

I offer a multidisciplinary and relational approach to psychotherapy that includes early attachment work and a sensitivity to intergenerational dynamics and trauma, with a holistic orientation and evidence-based techniques. The role of the body in healing is central to my work, as I draw on many somatic practices. I also work with the arts as a healing modality. On the part of my clients, no experience in the arts is necessary. Whichever therapeutic modality we choose as best suited to your current journey, we work with the fundamental creative drive that is present in all of us to encounter the many facets of your healing pilgrimage necessary for growth and lasting change.

Often we know what we need to do differently, it's not that we don't have the wisdom, it's that it can be hard to apply! Doing Psychotherapy with me is a gentle and compassionate process of uncovering and tending to the old wounds and patterns that can be steering our behaviour and leading us astray. This frees up the space to live in the present with mindfulness, and create the future that we dream of!

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

My approach is to work collaboratively with clients using a holistic model of therapy which entails a blending of Eastern and Western modalities. For example, training in meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, proper exercise, a nutritious, science-based diet and maintaining proper sleep hygiene. Also, including talk therapy can then help to reveal core values and issues. Mindfulness training benefits clients in observing clearly thoughts and behaviours. Clients benefit greatly through the use of evidence based interventions by developing the skills needed to evaluate thought patterns and overcome destructive patterns.

Psychotherapy offers a process in which you are able to develop healthier ways of being in the world. Often through difficult life events you develop beliefs and habitual ways of interacting with others that keep you stuck in old patterns. Psychotherapy enables you to transform physical and emotional blocks that hinder you. You can create healthier beliefs and behaviours that lead to happier and more joyful interactions with yourself and others.

Psychotherapy is a process of gaining an awareness of one's issues which leads to improving the understanding of one's issues. Following this, the process of psychotherapy is to follow through with some form of therapeutic action to either improve the awareness, increase one's understanding or resolve the issues that one originally came in to psychotherapy for.
