“Compassion is the courage to descend into the reality of human experience.” - Paul Gilbert
Counseling
At the heart of Compassion Focused Therapy
is befriending ourselves and our humanness, as we navigate the inevitable challenges and accompanying pain, that is part of our life journeys. Cultivating an inner ally and place of safe refuge provides us with a secure base, foundational in quieting of the often harsh voice of self criticism, and making room for a more compassionate voice to emerge. Compassion Therapy is my specialty. I have completed the Self Compassion in Psychotherapy Certificate Program and Advanced Training in Compassion Focused Therapy. Training Internal Family Systems, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and Trauma Informed approaches also infuse my practice. Conversations and reflections, education and exercises, practices and meditations, and intuitive wisdom support the creation of a personalized approach and the cultivation of inner resources and tools that nurture your healing and your capacity to be with yourself in kinder, gentler, and emboldened ways. Whether you are seeking guidance in navigating the impact of life stresses, losses, transitions, burdens, anxieties and depressions. Whether you have engaged in Mindful Self Compassion teachings or a training program and are seeking to explore your fears, blocks and resistances to self compassion and deepen your understanding and practice. I am devoted to supporting you in cultivating self honouring changes in your life. I welcome new clients to my online private practice in September 2023. Connect with me if you would like to set a time for a 20 conversation to explore the possibility of engaging in a therapeutic compassionate journey with me. Note: I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Worker and Social Service Workers and am licensed to offer therapy services in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
