My Core Beliefs

The quality of our lives is based partly upon the quality of the questions we ask ourselves daily. If you are not inspired about your life or if you are not living the life you truly dream of, it may depend on the type of questions you are asking yourself.

I hold a core belief in the power of people and relationships to heal and transform. I think that nothing should be labelled as good or bad, right or wrong, it is simply effective or ineffective. 

Our services are strength based through individual empowerment, founded in mindfulness and awareness, Client Centered, Somatic healing, Relational Life Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy(CBT) and other modalities.

Focusing on my work with couples through Relational Life Therapy(Terry Real) & PACT(Dr.Stan Tatkin). I work with each couple to change their negative emotional patterns and create a closer connection, along with teaching them skills and tools for managing conflict more effectively. 

My Journey In Becoming A Counsellor

I began my career as an Early Childhood Educator and owned a successful bilingual preschool for almost 10 years.

As I began to have children of my own, I quickly discovered that I was being drained emotionally, physically, and socially working with other children.
I then changed my focus after I went through a process with Dr. Demartini and really honed in on my highest values. I always knew that relationships and communication were very important to me but I had never linked them to a career. My relationship suffered for several years after the sudden loss of my husband’s brother.

We struggled to keep our relationship intact as we went through several stages of grief all while becoming new parents. As we invested in our personal development, we quickly saw massive shifts in our relationship and we are now thriving. It was then that I decided I wanted to help other couples who are struggling in their relationships to gain some tools and insights in helping them move forward.
