Our sessions together can look many different ways weaving together talk with body-based approaches. In the first session(s), I typically guide the conversation with questions to connect with you and get an understanding of what you want to explore in counselling.

This process can look many different ways. One metaphor I like to use is that we are building your fingerprint for counselling. What worked for someone else might not feel right for you.

Creativity in the space is welcomed. For some people, they like to bring things to read to me and discuss. Other people find movement during the session helpful. Other people enjoy taking home prompts for their home practice.

I will often check in with you to talk about how the process is going for you.

Counselling is an investment of time, money, and emotional bandwidth and these are all factors that get consideration. Spacing between sessions allows for time to process practices. Scheduling is something that you have autonomy over and we can discuss what works for your context.

I am able to work with people located in some other provinces and territories. Please reach out to me if you are unsure.

I accept e-transfer or credit card payment through JaneApp. RHAP, CVAP and FNHA clients are through direct billing.

Brainspotting is a focused meditation that helps your mind go wherever it needs to. Where you look affects how you feel. In Brainspotting, we use your field of vision to identify and orient to a spot in the room that connects strongly with a body sensation you are feeling. By mindfully focusing on that spot, we can help your brain drop out of overthinking mode, and let it go wherever it needs to go to process your experience. My role in this process is to facilitate the Brainspotting, be in connection with you, and attune to your experience.
