| Practice Description: |
 | Currently I am providing counselling by phone and secure video options. In this time of uncertainty and changes, please feel free to contact me for support and coping strategies. |
Are you feeling overwhelmed, sad or disconnected? In the face of distress and challenges, you can discover how to experience a life based on your own strengths, choices and values. I offer a warm and supportive environment for both individuals and couples struggling with emotions, relationships, past difficulties or trauma and with coping with what's new and unexpected,. Take this opportunity to explore/share emotions, find compassion for yourself and others, as well as develop new coping strategies.
My couples approach is based on training and experience in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). For couples in stress or facing disconnect, this provides an opportunity for meaningful, heartfelt conversations that can bridge differences and rebuild connection. As a specialist in trauma, I offer psychotherapy as well as body-based, expressive and experiential approaches to heal and move beyond traumatic experiences. One specialized technique I offer is Eye Movement Integration (EMI), a brief experiential therapy. Another is Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM), which enlists our own resources to meet traumatic experiences in such a way to release the need for defense responses.
Building on 30 years experience in the areas of psychology and health, I also offer techniques such as tapping, mindfulness-based stress reduction, meditation, as well as relaxation and visualization which clients may use to build a personalized kit designed to help manage stressors and distress.
