Compassionate Counselling and Art Therapy to Increase Wellness and Lasting Change
Welcome
If you're here, you may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress and burnout, disconnected from yourself, or finding it difficult to move forward despite wanting things to change.
Beginning therapy is a courageous step. While it can be deeply rewarding, it's also natural to feel vulnerable, uncertain, or even a little scared.
My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll explore your experiences at a pace that feels right for you, helping you gain insight and move toward the meaningful changes you want in your life.
It would be an honour to walk alongside you on your journey toward greater well-being.
What I Can Help With
Anxiety, Stress & Burnout
Reproductive Mental Health
Eating Disorders
Anxiety, stress, and burnout can leave you feeling stuck, isolated, and emotionally exhausted. Therapy can offer a safe and supportive space to slow down, understand what you’re experiencing and work toward greater balance and emotional well-being.
Reproductive mental health counselling offers a warm, supportive space to navigate the emotional challenges of fertility, pregnancy loss, pregnancy, and the transition into parenthood. Together, we can make space for the uncertainty, grief, hope, and many changes that can come with these deeply personal experiences
If you're struggling with an eating disorder, you may feel caught in patterns that are difficult to change and overwhelming to face on your own. In counselling, support to explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be contributing to these struggles can help you to take steps towards change.
Trauma
Identity, Self-Esteem & Self-Worth Issues
Grief & Loss
Healing from trauma is a deeply personal and non-linear journey. Exploring how past experiences have shaped your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and sense of self can help you develop greater self-understanding and compassion. Counselling can offer a safe, supportive space to reconnect with yourself, build a greater sense of grounding and safety, and move toward feeling more empowered and whole.
Exploring your identity, self-esteem, and sense of self-worth can help you develop a deeper understanding and acceptance of who you are. Counselling can provide a supportive space to explore self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and the pressures that may shape how you see yourself.
Grief is a deeply personal experience that can touch every aspect of your life. While often associated with the death of a loved one, grief can also arise from the loss of a relationship, a significant life change, or changes in your health, identity, or hopes for the future. Having a safe and compassionate space where your grief can be witnessed, understood, and supported can help you navigate the healing process and find a way forward.
Life Transitions
Emotion Regulation
Relationship/Family Issues
Major life changes can affect every aspect of your well-being, leaving you feeling unsettled. Whether you're adjusting to a career change, becoming a parent, starting college or university, retiring, moving to a new community, experiencing divorce or separation or navigating a health challenge, you don't have to face these transitions alone.
