Counselling can help bring healing to places in our lives where we are stuck, suffering, or experiencing the effects of trauma. It can help breathe new life into old patterns, excavate our vitality, and offer us a path forward to more wholeness, meaning, and joy.

I offer individual, in-person counselling with adults ages 18 and up in my welcoming office located on a quiet street just minutes from downtown.

Together, we collaborate in an embodied practice that goes beyond talk therapy into the experiential and transformational.

We are guided by the wisdom of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Somatic Psychotherapy, Attachment theory, and a Culturally Responsive and Socially Just (CRSJ) framework.

Come meet with me Tuesday through Thursday from 11:00 AM till 7:15 PM. Appointments are $150 per 50-minute session. I may be able to offer a reduced rate for those without insurance/extended benefits.

I am approved to provide counselling services through the CVAP program.

The Safe and Sound protocol was developed by Stephen Porges, the originator of Polyvagal Theory.

This therapy involves using headphones to deliver specially filtered music which communicates safety to the nervous system, inviting it to retune towards greater calm and ease.

How: Our nervous systems are always scanning our environment to help us stay safe. Sometimes, when we go through injurious or traumatic events, our nervous systems get "stuck" in survival states like fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. Even when the threat passes, our nervous system keeps registering danger.

Polyvagal theory suggests there are three parts to our autonomic nervous system: Sympathetic (fight or flight), Dorsal (shut down), and Ventral-Vagal (safety and social engagement). Music that is specially filtered to the frequency of the human voice "tells" the nervous system that danger has passed and it is safe to rest, digest, play, and engage.

I offer online or in-person delivery of the SSP. A one-time fee of $175 + gst is required to access the playlist. Then, sessions are $150 per 50 minute session, and $75 per 25 minute session.
