Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is a powerful treatment for individuals who are experiencing emotional difficulties. This treatment can be used for people experiencing life stressors, anxiety, depression, and more. I use a holistic approach to help clients overcome their emotional and mental health struggles. I use a variety of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment Therapy.

  • Psychotherapy is a powerful treatment for individuals who are experiencing emotional difficulties. Research shows that psychotherapy improves emotions and behaviours and is linked to positive changes in the brain and body.

    Some of the many benefits include:

    • Having a safe space to talk about sensitive personal issues

    • Decreasing or eliminating depression and anxiety

    • Reducing and managing negative or unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviours

    • Understanding, processing, and healing the effects of traumatic events

    • Reducing unhealthy behaviours and establishing new healthy behaviours and habits

    • Learning effective coping skills to manage difficult situations

    • Improving sleep, nutrition, and physical activity patterns

    • Having more satisfying relationships at home, school, or work

    • Improving overall physical and mental health and wellness

    • Learn to be more mindful, confident, self-aware, and happy!

    The therapeutic relationship is the most important factor in achieving positive change. I work with my clients to build a strong rapport. I provide them a safe space to be vulnerable so that healing can occur. Every individual is unique and there isn't one specific therapeutic technique that is right for everyone. I use a variety of modalities and techniques that are tailored to best suit your needs.

Trauma Therapy

For those who have experienced trauma, trauma therapy can be especially helpful in recovery. I offer care using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is a unique and highly effective approach to anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). EMDR can help you overcome specific trauma or work through broader patterns of emotional distress to better achieve your goals and reclaim your sense of wellbeing.

Coaching

Coaching is useful for individuals who are striving for a more balanced and harmonious life. I can work with you to provide recovery coaching, life coaching, and family and caregiver coaching. I work hands-on with clients and their families to help them reach their goals.

  • Recovery coaching is a collaborative, strength-based approach for individuals in active addiction or in recovery from alcohol and other substances, co-dependency, and addictive behaviours.

    I know how scary it can be to think about that first step to change unhealthy, destructive behaviours and enter recovery. As your recovery coach, I am your support and cheerleader in your journey to a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life.

    Recovery coaching is a healing-centred, strength-based approach for individuals who are in active addiction or in recovery from alcohol and other substances, co-dependency, and addictive behaviours. It is a collaborative partnership where the individual directs their recovery while the coach provides their personal and professional experience to support successful change.

    As your coach, I will assess your readiness for change and then work to strengthen and reinforce recovery. We will work together to determine your short-term and long-term goals and create a plan of action to achieve them while focusing on and increasing your strengths.

    When I first entered recovery, I was told by a very loving addiction counsellor that early recovery is like a roller coaster ride, and that I should “buckle up and get ready for the ride!” Was she ever right! I will be there for your rollercoaster ride, compassionately empowering you to build confidence and self-autonomy.

  • Life Coaching is an action and solution-based approach that helps individuals achieve their goals.

    Life Coaching is an action and solution-based approach that helps individuals achieve their goals. Life Coaching focuses on where people are currently in their life and where they want to be in their future. As your coach, we will work collaboratively to attain the life you truly desire. Executing the necessary changes to attain personal success can be challenging and overwhelming. I will support you, hold you accountable, and celebrate your success every step of the way.

    Life Coaching focuses on the present and the future with a strong emphasis on action through the use of SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely) goals. Life coaching can improve all areas of your life and I take a holistic approach that incorporates all aspects. Our sessions can help you increase your confidence and critical self-reflection, assist you in finding meaning and purpose, strengthen your intrapersonal and interpersonal skills, empower you to make positive decisions, help you identify your career goals or thrive in your current career, and so much more!

  • Family and Caregiver Coaching is a recovery-oriented support that assists individuals whose loved one is struggling with mental health or addiction issues.

    When a loved one faces mental health or addiction issues, it can be incredibly challenging for their immediate family to cope. Whether the person is your child, partner, or sibling it can be heart-wrenching to watch them suffer. A natural inclination is to want to fix their problems but many times you may feel powerless to do so. People experiencing mental health or addiction problems are not always ready or willing to ask for help. But whether they are currently seeking treatment or not, It is still very important that you also take care of yourself, find balance, and meet your own needs.

    As your family and caregiver coach, I will provide you with the education, support, and resources on how to best help yourself through all these difficult challenges. I will provide you with a safe space to explore your feelings and assist you in processing all the complex emotions you may be experiencing. We can explore codependent relationships and learn how to set healthy boundaries. Together we will come up with a plan of action for you and your family to implement comfortably. I will be by your side and empower you every step of the way!
