Counseling Services
Individual and couples/multiples counseling
I provide counseling services for individuals, couples, and polyamorous relationships (in cases where more than two individuals in a relationship seek support).
All of my services are available for either individual or multiple clients. I offer a complimentary consultation with you and/or your partner(s) to assess the best approach and determine the most suitable course of support tailored to your situation needs. Each session is customized to align with your specific goals and requirements across any of the service areas. I employ various therapeutic modalities and practices to best address your needs and areas of focus.
Communication and Intimacy
Each individual has their unique style of communication, and at times, it can be challenging to feel truly understood by loved ones. This can lead to feelings of misunderstanding and isolation, creating distance in relationships. Enhancing communication skills can foster a deeper connection with partners and strengthen intimacy. I provide a safe and supportive space to explore effective communication methods and improve the quality of interactions.
Reclaiming Healthy Intimate Relationships after Trauma
How can individuals heal from trauma to cultivate healthy romantic and intimate relationships? Is it possible to have one without the other, and vice versa? I am committed to supporting you throughout this courageous journey. My sessions are client-directed, meaning you determine the components of your journey and the path you wish to take.
Sexual Identity Support
This profoundly personal and intimate aspect of sexuality necessitates understanding and acceptance. I provide inclusive and affirming support within a non-judgmental environment as you navigate this journey, encompassing sexual, identity, exploration, and more. My approach is to create a space where you feel free to explore and embrace your authentic self.
Lifestyles and Sexual Interests
Are you seeking to explore new or alternative lifestyles? Do you have questions about fantasies, kinks, or lifestyle options? My approach is person-centered and relationship-focused, addressing the connection you have with yourself, others, or both. The quality of our sexual health is shaped by our pasts, interests, and life experiences, as well as our aspirations, dreams, fantasies, and goals. My aim is to assist you and/or your partner(s) in achieving this quality and overall well-being.
Individual appointments are approximately 60 minutes in duration, while couples or multiple participants’ sessions last 90 minutes. Extended sessions can be arranged, along with evening and weekend appointments. My schedule is flexible and varies weekly to accommodate later or weekend hours as required. A sliding scale is available to assist those for whom the cost of therapy present a challenge.
Parenting workshops (coming soon)
As a predominantly single parent of two sons, one of whom is on the autism spectrum, I have developed a deep appreciation for the challenges and intricacies of parenthood, particularly for those raising highly creative children. Now that my sons are adults, I can assure you that all the effort invested now will lead to a brighter future.
Parenting workshops will center on established theories, tools, and techniques to assist you and your child or children in acquiring valuable skills within a collaborative and interactive setting. I aim to offer these workshops starting in 2025 in Fort Saskatchewan in partnership with Healing Family Matters (www.healingfamilymatters.com). In the meantime, if you are seeking immediate options, please do not hesitate to reach out, and I would be happy to share some resources, or you can explore the Parenting section on my Resource page.
Group workshops (See Events Page)
I am offering group workshops focused on sexual health, identity, lifestyles, and related topics. These workshops are available in Fort Saskatchewan or online and will be conducted based on expressed interest. If there is a particular topic or area you wish to discuss, learn more about, receive peer support for, or connect with like-minded individuals, please feel free to notify me via text or email. I welcome all suggestions for learning and sharing in a group environment. While attending a group workshop may initially feel intimidating, the support and collaboration fostered in such settings offer a unique and often highly beneficial experience for all participants. Each attendee is required to complete a Group Information and Declaration form to ensure privacy and confidentiality for everyone involved.
Workshops be offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and registration costs may vary. If cost presents a barrier to participation, please inform me during registration; this information will remain strictly confidential, as I aim to make the workshops as accessible as possible.
