Are you a woman with lower desire than her partner? Are you struggling to reach orgasm? Is sex painful, impossible, or simply not fun or pleasurable? Perhaps you’re worried about the impact of these problems on your relationship, or a satisfying sex life is really important to you. Maybe it feels like you’re missing out on something important that everyone else seems to be enjoying. You’re not sure what's wrong, what’s normal, what to do, or where to get help. Counselling is a safe place to discuss these kinds of concerns. Clients often tell me that they appreciate the nonjudgmental space we create together.

Unlike many people in private practice, my practice focuses specifically on supporting people to heal from trauma. When we think of "trauma", many of us often think of significant events that cause difficulties with coping. However, the experience of trauma is much more than an event. The experience of abuse, neglect or living with prolonged exposure to stress can have a significant impact on physical, emotional and spiritual health. I work with trauma that can occur from single events as well as exposure to trauma over a longer period of time. I use a number of modalities to address the complex nature of trauma.

You bring the expert knowledge of your own life into the therapeutic relationship and together we will use that knowledge to create your desired lived experience.
