I know what it’s like to suffer from anxiety and what a panic attack looks and feels like.

I would like to rephrase the words “panic” and “attack”.

​

They don’t help those of us who’ve had to experience them.

​

They do the opposite by invoking negative feelings within us, causing fear, and making things worse.

I can help you understand your ‘anxiousness’, help you determine what’s causing it and then guide you in releasing it.

From childhood trauma to current life; we all experience traumatic events that shape us.  

I list substance use disorder along with trauma because the two can go hand-in-hand. I come from a family that has struggled with alcohol and opioid dependency as well as a lot of trauma.

​

Whether you're struggling with substance use disorder or are a loved one of someone who is, understanding, psycho-education and self-care is a big part of recovery and forgiveness.

This is a journey that is 'yours' but you need not walk it alone.

People often seek counselling or hypnotherapy for similar reasons. Combining both in a session has proven effective, accelerating the healing toward the envisioned new and better life.

​

I'm here to assist you whether you prefer counselling or are open to hypnotherapy.
Regarding hypnotherapy, let's address the confusion. It's crucial to highlight the term 'therapy'.

​

Every aspect is therapeutic, and during hypnosis, you remain in control. Hypnosis is a natural state experienced daily, like daydreaming or getting absorbed in a movie or book.

There are many kinds of grief; what I primarily focus on is complex grief and more specifically suicide grief and MAID (medical assistance in dying).

This is where I have my own life experience as well as an understanding that this specialized grief is under recognized and under supported.

​

I work with those who are left behind when loved ones either chose to die by suicide or chose MAID.

​

There are no judgements, here, only compassion and understanding as I assist you in navigating through these life changing decisions.
