Anxiety

Ever feel tight chested? Have regularly sweaty palms? Overthink? Or find it nearly impossible to sit still? Anxiety disorder impacts one in seven Canadians. Let's get you some tools in your toolkit to get through it.



Life transitions


Life Transitions

Whether you're expecting an addition to the family. Finding your new identity with the loss of a loved one. Or starting anew at a new school. Life transitions are hard and most times we aren't given a guidebook. Let's work together to make one for you.


Sex Therapy for Women

Sex Therapy for Individuals

S-E-X. It's a topic that's so taboo from society, but why? Let's rewrite that folktale and bring your challenges to session. Self-care is a concept that extends to our mental, spiritual, physical, and sexual health. Nonetheless, the sexual side of health tends to come up missing in the dialogue. Whatever distress you're experiencing, let's work to minimize it.

Forming New Habits

New Habits


Change and adaptation are how humans have survived for centuries. If this is something you want to implement within your own life, it is 100% achievable with the right plan and trial and error. Your current habit's didn't build overnight nor will your new ones. But with a stubborn attitude and lots of rewarding, those new habits will absolutely stay. Let's get there together.

Boundaries and Assertiveness Skills Training, Stop

Boundaries & Assertiveness

Standing up for yourself and avoiding situations we don't want to be roped into sounds like a great concept, but driving that into action can be intimidating. Wondering how you can do that while maintaining your inner peace and avoiding feelings of guilt? I promise these skills are buildable. Let me help you figure this out.
