EMDR Basic Training Membership

Lasting Wellness Counselling Services

I have more than 25 years of experience teaching and supporting people in community settings, including the Guelph Correctionalional Centre and the Canadian Mental Health Association. I have over 15 years of clinical expertise treating the symptoms of complex trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. In addition to talk therapy, I use therapies that go beyond the 5% of our decision-making that is our conscious mind, to support you to repattern your subconscious for lasting wellbeing. Some of the therapies I may use, depending on your challenges and preferences, are Counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS) Informed Therapy, Body-Based (Somatic) Therapies, Mindfulness and Meditation, and Self-Compassion. I continually improve my knowledge and skills by taking professional training to support you with leading-edge integrative therapies that tend to achieve outstanding results. I have taken many additional trainings in EMDR and trauma, mental health and wellbeing. I have two yoga teaching certificates and a qigong teacher training certification, and utilize other body-based (Somatic) therapies. You will see me with my two dogs, Princess and Mocha, who will double as “co-therapists” in session.I ​believe that wellness is more than the absence of disease. It involves the wholeness and interconnectedness of our mind, body, emotions, and spirit. As someone who has learned to thrive with a significant mental health issue, I am passionate about creating healing, transformation, and lasting wellness in the lives of my clients. Respect, empathy, collaboration, and empowerment guide all of my interactions.
