Do you find yourself feeling stuck, whether in dissatisfying relationships, weighed down by past trauma, making significant life transitions, or experiencing persistent anxiety or depressed mood? Does it feel like no matter what you do, or how you try to change, it’s the same old story? Many people can’t help but feel frustrated, lost, and hopeless when faced with these kinds of struggles, and don’t know where to turn.

February 2023: Unfortunately, I am fully scheduled at this time. I view the courageous people who contact me the utmost respect. My intention is to meet you where you are, considering the whole of your physical, emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual self. Working collaboratively, we will strive to create change and promote well-being. I have connected with many people struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship, sexuality, life transition, and spiritual/existential concerns. I enjoy working experientially in the 'here and now' of our encounter while keeping your strengths, skills, and goals in focus.

Are you navigating the aftermath of toxic relationships or trying to heal from past traumas? Maybe you are noticing unhealthy patterns that you'd like to break? Are you saying sorry too much, feel like its unfair, and don't know how to stop? This can cause low self-esteem, hard time trusting others, and people-pleasing. The overthinking, feeling on edge, anxiousness, can be exhausting. Together, we will explore and process your experiences, develop healthier relationship patterns, and help you regain a sense of inner peace. As a team, let's work on what is bothering you. You no longer have to keep it in or deal with it alone.

Welcome! It takes courage and strength to reach out, and I am so glad that you're here. I am passionate about building a secure, and supportive relationship where you feel safe to identify and explore experiences and core beliefs that may have you feeling 'stuck' in life. I have an eclectic and engaging approach that honours you as the expert in your own life, and as such, focuses on creating an individualized treatment plan. We will utilize modalities (such as IFS and Brainspotting) that empower you to identify and achieve your healing goals, increase your self-awareness, and ultimately support you in overcoming life’s challenges.

I have been providing therapy for many years and I consider it an honour to come along side others (individuals, couples and families) as they seek change and transformation. When you are faced with life's unexpected challenges, distress or overwhelming anxieties, seeking help and consulting with a therapist is a significant step.

Are you struggling with feelings of overwhelm, constant overthinking or consistent feelings of distress? Perhaps you have lost motivation, are dealing with a life transition, struggling with burnout or have extremely low energy? So many have become familiar with a state of discomfort and suffering and it can take an exceptional amount of courage to reach out for help. Reaching out is the first step and at The Therapy Collective we are here to help.

Have you tried therapy before for your PTSD and trauma symptoms and found you hit a plateau, as if something was missing? Are you looking for a different approach? Do you suspect your trauma experience(s) may be impacting your sexual expression - like having low desire, dissociating during intimacy, or struggling to enjoy pleasure? Have you been diagnosed with things like anxiety or panic disorder, or BPD, but think these are a result of your trauma? Or, perhaps you are feeling as though watching porn or seeking sex has gotten out of control and you are looking for someone to talk to about it who isn't going to shame you.

Change, growth, challenges, and transitions are inevitable, unavoidable, and often completely unexpected in life resulting in small traumas that can still cause significant distress in daily functioning. A part of being human involves having perceived “demons” in our closets or events we experienced in our past or childhood that may impact our present-day functioning. You may have unintentionally learned that repressing or not talking about these small traumas is the “appropriate” way to cope but it may not be working resulting in you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, upset, and like you are spinning out of control.

We all have the capacity to rise above and create positive changes in our lives. By exploring your mental, emotional and physiological responses to stress, I can teach you strategies to manage challenges and symptoms in ways that will help you feel safe, grounded and connected. As a Trauma-Informed clinician, I integrate the following Brain-Based therapies to support your change and growth: EMDR, Brainspotting, Polyvagal theory. We will work together to help you cope with stress, build resilience and improve relationships. You CAN move forward from anxiety, depression, stress and trauma.

Art therapy is an ideal way for individuals or groups to explore therapy and find healing and support. Therapy can be joyful and creative.
