Individual therapy
My approach to individual therapy is to provide a safe place for clients to express themselves and explore what’s not working in their lives.  It is a supportive and non-judgmental environment that encourages you to be gentle with yourself and curious.  From this place, you can more easily reflect on your true thoughts and feelings and develop insight as to what would help you feel better. 

I provide individual therapy within a number of areas.  My experience includes, but is not limited to helping clients deal with:

  • Life-transitions

  • Infertility issues

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Relationship issues

  • Family problems

  • Grief and loss

  • Suicidal ideation and behaviour

  • A history of trauma or abuse

  • Anger issues

Couples therapy
My approach in couples’ therapy is to provide an environment where both partners feel comfortable, heard, and respected.  Acknowledging that a relationship needs help can make people feel vulnerable.  When working with couples, I’m mindful of this and the need to create a safe place where couples can explore their relationship in a more authentic way.

I provide couples therapy with a focus on:

  • Helping couples unsure of the future of their relationship.

  • Improving communication between couples.

  • Fostering a better understanding of each other’s needs and perspectives.

  • Enhancing the emotional connection in a relationship.

Group work
On occasion, I provide group talks or workshop on mindfulness and relaxation.
