    You may not know exactly what’s wrong—you may only know that something doesn’t feel right. Therapy can help make sense of your feelings and emotions, and offer increased clarity in your life. This increased clarity can bring more autonomy and choice, increasingly satisfying relationships, and more joy.

    We have great inner resources for healing and for growth. But we need a context in which we feel listened to and heard and within which a new perspective can develop. My method as a psychotherapist is to listen carefully to your dreams, experiences, fears, hopes, and longings, as we work together in your therapy to understand your particular concerns and experiences.

    Consider what brought you here. Are you worried about the future? Relationships suffer when we feel dissatisfied, lonely, or lost. Do you feel misunderstood? That can leave us anxious or angry. We can bring awareness to the beliefs guiding our lives and create greater connection to ourselves and others through the honest conversation therapy offers.

    The emotional tools we use to cope with life have a way of taking over. We get stuck in loops of action or avoidance that hurt others and hinder ourselves. Therapy helps us find a way out: breaking these loops, building new patterns, and developing new tools to both cope and thrive.

The reasons for coming to therapy are as varied as the people who come. Overwhelming or subtle, no two reasons are alike.

    In therapy, two hearts and minds can meet. The client is encouraged to unfold his or her life story; the therapist’s tenderness and maturity help allow the client to express himself or herself anew. Healing and transformation can then begin, and the client can start to appreciate himself or herself as unique. Therapy moves clients towards both accepting what is broken in them and finding hope for healing.

    Many clients entering therapy wonder, “How can only talking help me?” The increased sense of well-being we gain in therapy is more than just a worded experience. Current research in neurobiology validates the effectiveness of talk therapy, in which the therapeutic conversation creates “limbic resonance.” When you sit with a calm, knowledgeable, experienced psychotherapist you are neurologically regulating mind and mood.

    Finding a therapist with whom you feel comfortable enough to discuss your challenges and dreams takes courage. Oftentimes we start looking when we are already struggling to cope. Together we can build on your courage to support your healing and growth. Therapy offers space to explore with compassion, to find stability, and to create new possibilities.

    Therapy is two people working to understand how our behaviour is shaped by the people around us. We adapt by using them as models to live our lives by. This adaptation affects how we perceive ourselves and how we relate to our friends, our peers, and our families. Together we will begin to create the tools for you to effect lasting change in your life.

    In psychotherapy, we talk together - about your life, the obstacles you encounter, and your hopes for the future. You are listened to intently - with respect, with an experienced ear, and with caring. In such deep conversation, old problems are bathed in new light, and unexpected possibilities can emerge in your life and relationships.

    Early life experiences inform how we construct and move through our adult lives. But outdated models of relating or patterns of feeling can block growth and fulfillment. In therapy we work to strengthen the essential capacities you already possess, and support new ways of being and relating that better serve you.

    Psychotherapy can be a transformational experience of self-discovery. This work can generate new strength rooted in your expanding self-awareness. As a catalyst of change, therapy supports your efforts to identify patterns that are no longer serving you and to reconnect with yourself in a new, compassionate way. I look forward to travelling this journey with you.

    Sooner or later, most of us will find ourselves in a situation that challenges our ability to cope. By helping to promoting greater self awareness, psychotherapy offers the possibility of finding new ways of looking at old problems, which creates the possibility of finding new solutions.

    Registered Psychotherapist

    WAITLISTING NEW CLIENTS
    We sometimes doubt that others truly understand what we are feeling, so we struggle in silence. This takes a toll on our minds and our bodies and leaves us feeling anxious or depressed. I offer a place to have these thoughts and feelings held, respected, and cared for. A place for you to explore yourself with another.
