Individual Psychotherapy

Virtual Therapist

I would certainly call myself an unconventional therapist, as I believe in getting to the root and core of a challenge using a variety of different methods. Some may call it Shadow Work, some may call it spiritual psychotherapy, however, there are root causes that have existed since childhood that we developed coping mechanisms for. As we age, we get triggered more and more until we are able to heal the root causes with compassion and love. My job is to guide you into the depths of yourself, to learn about who you are as a soul-being, and to heal the parts of you that are holding you back from living the life you deserve.

  • A Different Perspective...

    Spirituality cannot be separated from psychotherapy as some of our life crise wound us so deeply that thy carry a special power and spiritual meaning. Spirituality can address the unfathomable and uncertainty in our lives, speaking the language of suffering, compassion, transformation, acceptance, surrender, hope, sacredness, transcedence, forgiveness, synchronicity…

  • Clinical & Holistic Perspectives

    Based on my experiences in mental health as well as private practice, I amalgamate a number of different techniques to assist the client in healing all aspects of the self: physical, emotional, spiritual. This may include clinical approaches like CBT, or it may incorporate more holistic and somatic approaches like Internal Family Systems. Whether we start with reprogramming the brain or learning to ground in your body, all aspects will be incorporated on your journey.

  • Shadow Work

    According to Carl Jung, Shadow is a term used to describe the repressed or denied part of the Self relegated to the unconscious. Perhaps as a child, we were shamed for crying, or expressing anger, so we learned early on to repress those aspects of our Self. These feelings get banished into Shadow, like old family gems stuffed in a trunk in the basement. When Shadow is neglected we can feel shut down, depressed, anxious, alienated and deeply flawed. Shadow, if not acknowledged can become pervasive and emerge in self-sabotaging, uncontrollable behaviours like addiction, hatred and rage. Shadow work involves accepting this part of ourselves and integrating it so we are aware when protective mechanisms show up.

OUR APPROACH

Using a holistic approach to healing…

Holistic therapy is an integrative approach that focuses on the relationship between mind, body, and spirit, attempting to understand and address the ways issues in one aspect of a person can lead to concerns in other areas. I choose to incorporate various modalities during a counselling session as I feel that challenges don’t always just remain in the mind. Sometimes trauma and challenges can be stuck in the body as well. Through my professional development over the last few years, I have been able to amalgamate my clinical modalities with alternative modalities, including mindfulness, reiki, and body talk to gain a better understanding of the client and where the root of those challenges lie.
