Therapy is a process of supported inquiry. It is powerful work—it can help us shift from merely coping with life’s challenges to feeling more fully alive.

This is where we begin: with your desire to be in your life, and in the world, with less fear, and with as much authenticity and happiness as possible; to simply be more of who you are.

Something remarkable happens when we are listened to deeply and openly. Whether we have a strong sense of ourselves but are struggling with difficult feelings or we are lost, afraid, and overwhelmed with anxiety, speaking about it with someone who has the ability and psychic space to listen to us can be a powerful and healing experience.

Therapy is about deciding to move beyond fears and limitations, and about making a commitment to being fully and uniquely yourself.

We have all been puzzled by our own behaviours. Perhaps you do things that are self-defeating. or have difficulty navigating challenging relationships. Maybe you live with a pervasive feeling of emptiness or a panicky sense of dread.

Traumatic experience occurring in early life, as well as ongoing instances of neglect, loss or unmet need, may significantly affect our sense of self. Negative events act as filters that constrain our development and perceptions.

Sometimes it is more difficult to ask a question than to answer it. In conversation with another, one practiced in the art of attuned listening, it becomes possible to discover not only what is worthy of questioning, but why answers have remained so stubbornly concealed from our own searching.

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 But outdated models of relating or patterns of feeling can block growth and fulfillment.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.

“There is nothing so stable as change.” –Bob Dylan Change is inevitable. This can be frightening to acknowledge, but the ability to think, feel, and connect in new ways brings excitement that can be greater than fear.

Are you carrying the weight of emotional pain? You don't have to bear this burden alone. Together, we can lighten your load and embark on a journey towards healing and growth. Taking the first step is a courageous act. By choosing to seek therapy, you're investing in your well-being.

As you consider the idea of therapy and begin your search for a therapist, I’m guessing you may feel pretty vulnerable. I get it, I’ve been there. Trusting another with your personal story and letting go of some of the protections you have put in place over the years takes time. As your unique story unfolds, we will get there - together.
