Counselling

What to expect when you work with me.

We all deserve peace, connection and a sense of basic trust in ourselves and the world. Sometimes however, life can feel like too much to handle on your own. Stress, anxiety, relationship troubles, depression, trauma, major life changes and family issues are common challenges that can become overwhelming. When your usual ways of coping don't seem to be working anymore, working with a counsellor can help you find your way to a new way of seeing and being. I believe it is the inherent right of all of us as humans, to love and be loved, to feel connected, and to live a life that is rich and fulfilling. I also believe deeply that we're all capable of that. This is not to say there aren’t many things that can and do get in the way of experiencing life the way we’d like to. Everyone struggles at times in our lives. Sometimes that struggle can be intense, other times less so. It is human to struggle, and we don’t need to do it alone. My therapeutic approach is rooted in my sincere belief, in our ability to heal. I believe in people completely. No matter what the struggle, there is always hope. And I believe that no problem is larger than the human ability to heal and grow beyond it.  

The approach I work with is experiential. And the lens through which I approach our work together is informed by attachment science, family systems theory, mindfulness, Emotionally Focused therapy (EFT), and is both somatically as well as transpersonally based. 

I believe in the goodness of people and it is important to me to see that goodness in you. I gently walk alongside you as we navigate the courageous path of counselling, together. This is the key piece for me: together. You are not alone here. Together, we look at your struggles. Together we navigate the waters of emotion, whatever those emotions may be. Together, I will do my utmost to help you find your way through to your goal. Perhaps it is peace, connection, joy or empowerment? Whatever your goal, I am eager to align with you there.
