I have specialized in trauma work from originally working as a social worker in child protection to training to be a psychotherapist.  I utilize several approaches that work from a relational, somatic psychotherapy approach.  I am a Certified Somatic Transformation Practitioner and incorporate Internal Family Systems into my work. Other influences include Gestalt, mindfulness, and psychodynamic therapy.

My job is to create a safe space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. Experience has shown me that techniques are tools within an ongoing process where human connection and understanding are the conditions for change.

Together we find what matters to you, to find your energy for life and connection to your true self. We will collaborate to increase your strength and resilience to deal with life’s uncertainty, frustrations, and disappointments. These painful experiences will at times come up in our lives and the more we can tolerate and move through them the easier life is.

Working with me you will find someone dedicated to connecting with you and supporting you toward a freer, more vibrant, and authentic you! People find my presence to feel safe and grounded, attentive and responsive. I work to help you create the space within you and around you so that you have the time to integrate your experience. I am interactive and can challenge you, as well as, can listen deeply.
