ABOUT
ME
I'm here to help you live the life you've dreamed of.
​
YOU choose the direction, WE team up to get you there!
I’ve come to believe through my own healing journey, as well as through my education, that each person has inside of them a unique form of personal wisdom, and a purely authentic way of being. Yet over the course of life, the mistreatment, abuse, and trauma we experience can obscure our access to these internal resources.
I myself have suffered through trauma, deep anxiety, and very dark places. I know what it is like to feel buried underneath the weight of thoughts, emotions, and destructive behaviours. Thankfully, with the right mental health support, powerful techniques, and a deep willingness to heal, I was able to emerge from those dark places, and enter a life of connection, purpose, and love.
​
The experience of transcending many of my own struggles is why I believe counselling offers such incredible value, and why I’m in the profession – for it aims to help others find their true selves, and in doing so, live in health and joy.
My purpose is to offer that kind of help to you.
Every person is unique, and so are their needs. That's why my treatment plans are crafted with your unique values, strengths, and circumstances in mind. I use multiple different cutting-edge, and evidence-based techniques and strategies, and you can learn about them here.
Through application of these techniques, you can expect to:
• BREAK FREE from Worry, Anxiety and Fear
• Heal from past trauma, abuse and wounds.
• Understand unhelpful and addictive behaviours, and move towards right action.
• Uplift your spirit, and allow purpose and passion to flow into your life.
• Experience harmony in your relationships like never before.
• Finally get out of feeling stuck in your life situation.
If anything I've mentioned speaks to you, please don't hesitate to reach out. Together we'll co-create a healing plan that resonates deeply with your dreams and values, and gets you exactly where you want to go.
​
I look forward to meeting you!
