Relationship, Personal, & Family Counselling
Do you struggle in your relationships with your partner, family, or others? Do you find yourself repeating painful and ineffective patterns that limit your life? Do you feel anxiety, depression, stress, or other feelings that impact your enjoyment of life, relationships, or career?
We are social beings who desire connection, relationship, and to feel a sense of connection and belonging. But life and relationships can feel hard, sometimes for years. When we are unable to find ways through the most difficult moments, we can be left feeling confused, lost, and overwhelmed.
I am a co-founder of Metta Emergence Counselling, along with my partner Maria Alexandre. I am a Master Therapeutic Counsellor (Reg #1075). Since 2005, I have supported the growth of individuals, couples, and family members to experience loving, kind, and conscious, relationships with themselves and others. I empower clients through an exploration of your family system, attachment styles & areas of possible trauma to identify and work with the blocks and obstacles that prevent you from living the life you want. I can help you understand how your thoughts, feelings, stories, values, and expectations are interconnected with your unique history and impact how you perceive and experience the world. We cannot act beyond our level of consciousness, and once we become more self- aware, we can make different choices.
At Metta Emergence our integrative approach draws on therapeutic modalities from various schools of therapy as no single theory can meet the needs of a world of diverse individuals and the wide range of life circumstances they face. Our framework is grounded in:
- Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP Level 2)
- Attachment Theory
- Polyvagal Theory
- Family Systems Theory
- Humanistic or Person-Centered Therapy
- Gestalt Therapy
- Transpersonal Psychology
