"Train Your Mind Change Your Brain"
Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) committed towards providing you with a personalized service and individual attention if you are seeking to achieve a healthier emotional, mental, and physical lifestyle.

About my work:
Counselling and psychotherapy I provide are for various issue, mainly trauma, substance use, depression, suicidal ideations, anxiety, inability to relax or sleep, and compassion or empathy burnout. Some of these symptoms are experienced by everyone at some point in life, however when they become persistent and start to interfere with our life and relationships, they require attention. Some of these symptoms are also often experienced by health care professionals, military, police, and first responders as they are exposed to trauma of others and may suffer from vicarious trauma or secondary traumatic stress. My commitment is towards providing you with a personalized and confidential service no matter what background you are coming from, with patience, compassion, and non-judgement.
