I help clients with a variety of challenges such as anxiety, depression, OCD, emotional regulation, phobias, and much more.
In my supervised private practice I provide mental health support to women as well as families. I utilize evidence-based interventions and strive to create a safe, non-judgemental, and trusting therapeutic relationship with my clients. As a young mother I can empathize with the challenges women and families go through. Parents only want what is best for their children and it can be really difficult when they are struggling. In my supervised private practice I work with women, children ages 6-10, and adolescents ages 11-17.

Anxiety, depression and trauma are common in life today.
Over my 36 years of counselling I most enjoy working with clients who are committed and motivated to ‘do the work’. My expertise is focused in the areas of anxiety, depression, emotional abuse, trauma, PTSD, Complex-PTSD. Most of my clients have priorities that compete with the time they have for self care so my style is to focus on facilitating the achievement of your counselling goals in a patient but progressive pace. For me, counselling is not a ‘one off’ thing, and I enjoy building lasting relationships with my clients who often come back for support as needed intermittently over the years.

Being overly worried about what others think takes up a lot of time and energy, often leaving you feeling overwhelmed and burnt out. Trying to balance your time between school and work can make it difficult to connect with others on a deeper level and maintain meaningful relationships. You’re tired of feeling lonely and worthless. You’re not where you want to be and want to make a change. Experiencing these emotions doesn’t mean that they have to take over your life — I am here to support you in better managing them when they show up.

With over 10 years of experience and skill in offering therapy for those adapting after a life change, self-worth struggles, and anxiety.
Major life events can evoke different emotions: excitement, sadness, fear, and uncertainty. They can be overwhelming. I thrive on helping individuals and couples process, understand, and adjust to life events. It can be challenging to say out loud why this place may not feel completely like home or why your children may feel very different from you. I provide deep compassion, understanding, and empathy. I have a special interest in working with immigrant populations. I think all of us can have the opportunity to understand motives and transform patterns that allow us to grow emotionally in a safe space.

The problem? Anxiety and Stress seem to be infiltrating your life. You are constantly worrying and do not seem to be able to turn it off, you are worrying about many different things including what could happen in the future and/or ruminating about what has happened in the past, or worrying whether other people are judging you. Often you have trouble relaxing, feel unhappy, feel edgy and restless, you have that feeling that something bad might happen, and perhaps feel burnt out. You find that anxiety and stress make you irritable, lead to bad mood, difficulties concentrating, and feeling super unmotivated and even procrastinating.

Anxiety Counsellors

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?

Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.

How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?

The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?

Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.

How effective is treatment for anxiety?

Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
