Your mental health challenges might seem overwhelming, but they offer you an amazing opportunity for healing and growth. I always strive to make therapy an uplifting & empowering experience. Even when working through painful & challenging obstacles, I will ground you in your strengths while helping you develop new perspectives that strengthen, lead & inspire you. I have had the honour of helping thousands of individuals through 15 years of counselling, 10 years of personal development coaching and speaking across Canada on emotional development, leadership and growth-mindset. I am passionate & commited to serving people like you. I combine Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Extensional Therapy to help you develop the mental and emotional skills that allow you to be present and genuine, both with yourself and with others. These skills will help you learn to navigate & process challenging thoughts & emotions in ways that serve you and your purpose. No matter what you're struggling with mentally, emotionally, or relationally, you will have the time & space to open up, heal, and cultivate skills. This process will not only get you unstuck but help you build the life you want to experience. There is always hope, even if you can't feel it. Are you ready for change?

Approach Description: I use Narrative & Existential Therapy, allowing you to share your story & experiences, providing validation, processing, healing, & learning from challenging memories.
