Description
I look forward to meeting with you as we explore the challenges you face today along with the supports and strengths you have developed.
My aim is to create a hope-filled therapeutic environment; one of understanding and acceptance. In our work together we will explore the “enduring vulnerabilities” (unfinished business) that may be affecting your personal well-being & your emotional/relational health.
My work in the field of Mental Health currently spans over 8 years (2016) & my educational experience has provided me with an RPC,MPCC (Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling) designation and builds upon my life experiences as a writer, community educator, therapeutic youth worker, spouse & mentor. I am a member in good standing with the CPCA (Canadian Professional Counsellor’s Association) & an active member in a Clinical Counselling Internship.
While I have been trained in a variety of therapeutic methods, my approach is grounded in the integration of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness therapy, neuroscience/neuropsychology, family of origin research, & rational-emotive behavioral therapy (REBT). I take a full history with each client & we determine what the ‘underlying issues’ are (the roots) which will then influence the ‘behavior’ (or the fruits).
In my work with couples I utilize the Gottman Method. We will work to decrease and eliminate the 4 characteristics that predict divorce with over 86% accuracy:
- criticism,
- contempt,
- defensiveness, &
- stonewalling.
With couples I offer:
- couples counselling,
- marriage counselling,
- pre-marriage preparation,
- infertility support,
- support during recovery from an affair / regret incident, and
- individual counselling sessions along with joint sessions.
My work with individual clients includes work with:
- depression in it's many forms including bipolar disorders,
- anxiety including GAD,
- OCD behaviors,
- anger management and the underlying causes,
- postpartum adjustment & depression,
- performance orientation,
- boundaries - when to say yes & how to say no,
- shame-based & defensive personality disorders,
- physical/verbal/sexual abuse recovery & support,
- grief recovery & support,
- miscarriage & infertility support,
- meta-emotion awareness & emotion coaching,
- eating disorders & disordered eating patterns,
- LGBTQ support,
- patterns of addiction,
- divorce recovery,
- unwanted pregnancy support,
- prayer counselling - this is OPTIONAL as I work with clients of any faith (or non-faith) background.
On a personal note: I enjoy backyard gardening with a still-developing green-thumb, I constantly have a few novels 'on-the-go' & always look forward to discovering a new favorite author, & I enjoy fit activities including Olympic weight-lifting, kettle bell circuits, off-leash walks with our 2 racing hounds, & hot yoga.
I believe in nourishing the whole person: Body-Soul-Spirit (Mind-Will-Emotions) & I would be honored to work with you on your journey towards freedom.
Warm regards,
