Our sense of ourselves is a complicated thing. How we have been handled by others can imprint itself into our psyche and form our core beliefs about ourselves. We now know that these deeply engrained beliefs can colour much of our perceptions and the meanings we give our experiences. Our inner narrative ourselves can sometimes be very different than how others perceive us. When we are going through stressful experiences like life transitions, these ways of seeing and relating to ourselves can be triggered and we begin to feel vulnerable and dysregulated. We may feel that we have not earned our success, or deny our achievements. Our passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. We are interested in getting to know your experiences and unique pain points.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.
Approaches: eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-focused, Cognitive Behavioural, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, Solution-Focused and Narrative therapy
