Trauma has a tremendous impact on the brain and essentially disrupts the nervous system, which in turn, can affect our emotion regulation. Using an amalgamation of different evidence- based modalities and using the newest information on neuroplasticity, our goal is to rewire the neurons in the brain and make new connections in order to be able to heal from trauma from the inside out.

Having a strong background in child and teen therapy, I work with the individual and family as a unit to help identify and support the needs of the child or teen.

Preparing young adults for high school and university can be challenging, but providing the right coping strategies for stress is key!

More and more we are recognizing the importance of using our own innate wisdom and intuition. From a soul- based perspective, we combine spiritual wisdom and contemporary psychology with emotional healing. Whether you feel like you are feeling stuck, lost yourself, or if you would like to re-discover who you are through working together in this “bigger-picture” perspective, you will re-discover your intuition, what it feels like and sounds like in order for you to be confident in making decisions and feel empowered in your life.

Reiki is a complementary therapy relating to energy healing. Energy medicine aims to help the flow of energy and remove blocks in a similar way to acupuncture or acupressure. When we look at trauma, emotions can be stored in the body and may be repressed which in turn, can affect the physical body and contribute to symptoms of illness or discomfort. In my sessions, reiki may be used in conjunction with therapy to assist in moving stored energy and move emotional blocks in order to assist with healing on the energetic level.
