My work is compassionate, authentic, and tailored to each individual. I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques based on your unique needs and goals, and together we build a strong therapeutic relationship from which healing can unfold.
I have experienced my own share of trauma, anxiety, self-doubt, and life challenges. These experiences—along with professional training—have shaped my belief that when we are supported with understanding and practical tools, our struggles can become pathways to strength and resilience.
I am committed, passionate, and deeply invested in being the best therapist I can be. I continue to expand my knowledge and understanding of the complexities clients bring into therapy, and I do not shy away from difficult diagnoses or challenging life circumstances. I work with individuals who want to improve their mental health, develop coping skills, and navigate major stressors, life changes, and transitions. Working with me, you will gain practical tools to manage daily stress and emotional overwhelm, navigate life transitions with greater confidence, strengthen your relationships, and build resilience and self-understanding.
I use a thoughtful blend of approaches, including the Gottman Method for couples, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), attachment-based work, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT, also known as Tapping). Therapy may be brief and focused or longer-term, depending on your needs.
Emotional awareness is an important part of my work. In our sessions, I will help you slow down, notice what is emerging, and gently bring attention to what matters most—so meaningful change becomes possible.
You never know what life may have in store when you allow yourself to try something new.
Welcome to living the greatest and fullest version of yourself.
CBT helps you develop skills and strategies to manage life’s challenges and improve emotional well-being.
“CBT empowers you to take control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions in ways that create lasting change.”
My approach is not to create problems where there aren't any. This is often a struggle for couples to come to counselling, when one wants to attend while to other partner may be afraid to highlight or bring up issues that require some form of change and stay with the status quo. My approach to couples counselling is not to determine who is right and who is wrong or to assign blame. I will not be choosing sides. But during the sessions (10-12) we will be creating solutions and learning new skills based on what your own unique needs are as a couple and assigning homework to practice the skills learned. I have found my methods of delivering couples counselling to be quite effective. My goal is to strengthen the communication between the couple to reach a point of no longer requiring regular counselling.
"The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system." Gary Craig EFT Founder
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is used for all types of trauma, negative emotions, unhelpful behaviours (addictions, food cravings etc.).
EFT is a technique developed using ancient Chinese Medicine combined with modern psychology, EFT arms those individuals who have experienced traumatic events and emotions. EFT is referred to as the cousin to acupuncture. Clients can learn the techniques easily and are encouraged to use them to process their emotions at any time. EFT is an effective, non-medical approach that is safe and easy to use. Information about EFT is easily accessible to individuals wanting to learn the techniques to get started. However, those who really want to do “the heavy lifting” would benefit from having a therapist on their team, most are amazed at what a difference it makes.
Evidence-Supported method designed to help tackle Anxiety and Trauma Survivors and their families. EFT activates the mind body connection for restoring health and well-being.
In the counselling session, I will spend time talking with clients and offering support in areas such as addictions, relationships, abuse and trauma and family matters. l will then begin the tapping portion of the therapy session and provide you with resources to empower you to take control of your wellness. A typical EFT session is half talk therapy and half tapping/treatment.
