About me
I’m embracing Eldership in my counselling practice: individuals, dyads, and families through transitions and challenges. Having completed an M.A. Counselling Psychology, I’m a deep listener and provide authentic feedback.
During our conversation your life story, influences, and challenges emerge. We’ll collaborate on how to best shape the life you want to lead.With a Ph.D. Integral Studies, my previous work focused on facilitating inclusion – racial, cultural, age, life stages, sexual and gender identity in our communities. Integral counselling weaves mind, body, and spirit into healing. I bring a deep appreciation of wholeness to our work.
Arising from lived family experience of becoming multiracial, embracing LGBTQ+, caregiving and mental illness, I’m called to work with seniors and families in transition. Shifts in family circumstances (illness, death, relocation, diagnosis, divorce, identity, dementia, retirement, menopause, and renewal) affect the living family system. I witness and support your process. I use an Integrative approach grounded in psychodynamic therapy and weaving in techniques from my toolbox with techniques across counselling modalities (including ACT, mindfulness-based interventions, narrative therapy, gestalt, DBT, emotionally-focussed therapy and others… ).
