Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy, MACP, RP

Registered Psychotherapist

Our passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, angry or irritable. Are you experiencing relational difficulties or frustrations, and do you feel triggered by important others in your life? Do you sometimes find it difficult to identify or articulate your feelings? Do you cope with your feelings by avoiding them or shutting down? Do you sometimes 'people please', or feel driven to achieve to feel a sense of self-worth and safety, or to escape your feelings? Are you ready to get to the bottom of things? If you are interested in self-exploration, coping better, managing anxiety, perfectionism, trauma or depression, I can help. I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help, and how life can open up when you do. Our team strives to provide relevant, responsive and collaborative therapy by prioritizing rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties, even though some days it can feel that way; and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. We use an eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-Focused, Cognitive Behavioural/Acceptance and Commitment, Dialectical Behavioural, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, Solution-Focused and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing to tailor therapy to you. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life. Please note that at the moment, I am seeing all clients virtually.
