You’re feeling weighed down from anxiety, depression, anger, hurt, self-blame, guilt, or a low self-image. Your physical symptoms and chronic pain seem to be related to your challenging emotions. That’s because your body is storing the memories of unresolved traumatic experiences that have become the narrator of your negative thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and relationships.

You’re stuck in a narcissistic relationship with no way out. Whether you leave or you don’t, you are seeking support, validation, and courage. Your journey for healing and self-compassion has already begun as you are now determined to show up for yourself. I’m here for you.

I specialize in helping clients unburden trauma-related struggles by facilitating the processing of early childhood experiences and emotions that are stuck in the body. We work together to unblock your emotional and physical pain.You first need to find safety in your body to approach the “why” behind your thoughts and behaviours and to get unstuck from your negative thinking patterns.

I complement somatic healing and the training I have from the Transformational Growth™ Process with an Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach, a method which allows you and I to uncover all your hurt and vulnerable parts, and to gently meet all the protectors you created, such as anger or sadness, and to free them with compassion and authenticity.

For couples, I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an approach which successfully helps rebuild emotional bonds. I help you recognize negative conflict cycles, coach you on how to safely express vulnerable emotions, and give you tools to foster more secure connections.

For struggling teens, I will help you build resilience, confidence, and connection. For parents seeking family support, I will help you create stronger and healthier family dynamics.

Along with my extensive training, I draw from many years of life experience, including having successfully raised eight children of my own. The blend of multi-faceted therapeutic modalities that I draw upon in our sessions comes second to my presence, curiosity, empathetic connection, and warmth. I look forward to meeting you.
