The smile you wear everyday on the outside is wearing you down on the inside. You've accomplished a lot, yet you still feel like you're coming up short. At the root of your anxiety is a familiar sense that you're not good enough unless you make something of yourself. It pushes you to excel at work, but it riddles you with doubt in your relationships and makes it hard to be honest about how you feel. You hold your feelings back from the people you love because you don't want to burden them. So you keep your struggles to yourself. This is the way it's always been, but you're reaching a breaking point.

We often minimize our own experiences, needs or desires and "push through" because we think we should. These learned strategies may have been integral to getting through certain stages of life, but can now be holding you back from connection, confidence, and satisfaction. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disengaged with your own voice, my aim is to help you foster understanding, self-compassion and co-construct unique, manageable strategies that free you up to respond to situations, and yourself, with greater confidence, clarity and authenticity; opening possibilities for a more fulfilling connection to yourself and others.

Life can be challenging and complicated. We might be able to deal with most of the problems that come our way, and sometimes we face a problem that feels hard to manage on our own (and we shouldn’t have to do it alone!). This problem may be something we are battling with internally or with people in our lives. It can be beyond our control or we might not know how to solve it or even where to start. Many of us find it hard to manage or regulate our emotions. Let me support you in discovering the strength and resilience you have hiding beneath these challenges and let’s work together to overcome the things that are holding you back.

Do you know the feeling where you just don't know what to do or say? Maybe it is your child grappling with someone bullying them at school. Maybe you and your partner are feeling totally unsure how to be the parents and partners you both want to be. Maybe something tragic and life changing has happened and things are indescribably different - in ways you never wanted. Maybe you are seeing your teen shrink away from life in ways that seem totally out of character. Somehow your own life - your own family, your own children, your own choices - can feel like a mystery.

This hectic and at times uncertain life can feel overwhelming. When we lack grounding and direction it can feel like we will lose control of our emotions and ourselves. I practice counseling from a non-judgmental and acceptance based perspective where we can use your strengths, past lived experiences and new skills developed during the therapeutic relationship to move through the hard times and achieve your goals. My approach is to support you to identify the habits and patterns in relationships with yourself and others that may not be serving you and with this new awareness move towards your valued goals. EFT and EMDR Certified.

Kids do not come with a handbook to guide their parents through the challenges of growing up (at least I have not received my copy!). Our world seems more complex than when we were growing up. There is so much for kids (and their parents!) to navigate as their lives progress. I emphasize the role of relationships when working with children. As part of a larger family unit, children need their parents’ involvement and support through the therapeutic process. My goal is to support children (and their parents) adapt to change, seek stability, and build on their strengths and abilities to address their needs.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** Everyone experiences stress; not everyone's experience of stress is the same. Thoughts swirl and you might find yourself unable to settle the thoughts enough to sleep. You might worry about your kids, your job, or your relationships. You might have trouble communicating what you need from your family and friends, and you might wonder why others seem to handle their anxiety better than you do. Stress and anxiety are powerful. They can stop you from going places, or enjoying a social function or attempting something big, or even getting out of the house at all. It's really common, and you're not alone.

Attention parents. Is your child in elementary, high school, or post-secondary education and struggling with anxiety or depression? Is your child feeling socially anxious or experiencing difficulty separating from their digital devices? Recovering from the isolation and social restrictions has been difficult for so many students leaving kids uninterested in previous activities or peer groups. We have seen a substantial increase in the use of marijuana and alcohol in our youth as a result of unrecognized or undiagnosed mental health challenges. Many parents report they are at a loss to help their child flourish again and recover.

You’ve lost sight of who you are, what you want, and what matters to you. You feel unmotivated. You worry a lot. On a deep level, you feel alone. Your sadness and stress are valid responses. Your experiences are part of being human and you’re not alone in feeling this way.

The idea of sitting across from a stranger in an office and feeling pressure to be vulnerable is daunting. I get it, I attend counselling myself! Many of us have felt the nerves that come with the unknowns of receiving counselling for the first time, especially when you aren't quite feeling like yourself and are reaching out for support. My goal is to help you feel comfortable by conducting sessions online where you can enjoy the comfort of your own home, or in person with Walk and Talk sessions where we can experience the benefits of natural surroundings in one of London's beautiful parks while walking side by side.
