I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard and valued; when they can give and receive without judgement; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.

Services

Therapy sessions occur in a caring environment focused on exploring feelings, concerns, beliefs and behaviors. Together, we start with identifying areas of personal concern, and work towards finding strategies that change things up and focus on positive outcomes. Through the process, there is a wonderful opportunity for learning more about yourself and those around you. Each session starts exactly where you are at on that day. Developing the ability to talk about issues that may be causing you distress is an incredibly important step in building life-long skills of self-awareness, self-care, and self-advocacy.

Family Therapy and Parenting Support

Managing the many roles in one's life can be challenging even on our best days. Meeting with a parent individually, as a couple, or together with the children, we explore the views and relationships in the family with the primary aim to better overall communication. Family therapy helps to address many different issues, including:

Child and adolescent behavioural problems
Mental health conditions
Illness and disability in the family
Separation, divorce and step-family life
Pregnancy and Postpartum support

Mindfulness-based therapies help you focus on your thoughts and feelings without becoming overwhelmed by them. They can be used to help treat depression, stress, and anxiety. Sessions may incorporate techniques such as meditation, gentle yoga stretches and mind-body exercises that can benefit overall coping with life's challenges at any age.
