Relationships can be one of our greatest sources of nourishment &
catalysts for personal growth.
When we learn to embrace the challenge of triggers & upsets in relationship as
opportunities for greater self knowledge, self Love, intimacy, & connection, we are
at the threshold of major life transformation on all levels.

In our sessions, I meet you where you’re at & I am deeply dedicated to offering a neutral perspective and a fair process, mediating for the benefit of both people as we work toward greater understanding, connection, healing, and healthy outcomes for you both.
I will support you to develop important communication skills and offer powerful
experiential processes to guide each of you through and beyond your defences, to get in
touch with one another on a deep level, bring compassion to your core struggle and
support you to create healing & transformation there. You'll be guided to create
new patterns of connection, emotional responsibility & loving intimacy.
I offer you a safe, sacred space, deep empathy & presence, personal authenticity &
excellent therapeutic support with training in multiple modalities to support your unique
journey of healing & transformation.
(Relationships & communication are a special interest for me. My Couples counselling & Relationship Courses are
informed by leading Relationship experts such as the Gottman Method, Dr. Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focussed Therapy, the
Developmental Model of Dr. Ellyn Bader's Couples Institute, Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy, and Marshall Rosenberg's
Compassionate Communication. To learn more about the psychological perspectives I work with, you can visit our About page.)






As I complete my practicum toward certification in
Relational Life Therapy (RLT) with the Relational Life Institute, I’m extending a special invitation to a small number of couples to experience this work at 50% off my regular rate.
RLT, developed by Terry Real, is a direct, compassionate, and transformative approach to relationship healing. It goes beyond traditional talk therapy - helping couples uncover the root causes of disconnection and move from blame and resentment into truth, repair, and authentic intimacy.
In our sessions, I guide couples to see the unconscious patterns that keep them stuck, and to replace defensiveness with vulnerability, responsibility, and love. Together, we rebuild communication, respect, and emotional safety—allowing each partner to be fully seen and heard.
My work blends RLT principles with somatic awareness, emotional fluency, Indigenous and spiritual wisdom, and over two decades of counselling experience. This integration helps couples not just understand each other intellectually, but truly reconnect on a heart and soul level.
If you and your partner are ready to deepen your relationship,
resolve long-standing challenges, and rediscover joy in one another,
this practicum offer is a rare opportunity to do so at a significantly reduced rate.
Spaces are limited and available for a short time.
