When healing feels overwhelming, take some deep breaths.

Deep breath in, hold it for 3 seconds and let it out.

Try to imagine the tension, stress, and upset feelings release with every breath out, and breath in the peace, breath in the relaxing feelings, breath in the good.

It's the small steps that count, and sometimes that's the biggest steps you can make. And that's okay, it's normal, and you can heal with time because you deserve it. 😌

Turning the tide on trauma, one step at a time. 🌊

Got questions about group therapy? Let's clear things up. 💬

❓ "Is it really affordable?"
Yes! Our group sessions are affordable, even if you don't have insurance. The goal is to keep it low barrier, and to help make therapy more accessible.

❓ "What about confidentiality?"
We create a safe space where everyone agrees to keep what's shared in the room. Your privacy matters.

❓ "What topics do you cover?"
• Anxiety & stress management
• Building healthy relationships
• Self-esteem & confidence
• Life transitions & change
• Emotional regulation skills

Group therapy gives you community, shared experiences, and multiple perspectives. You're not alone in this.

I love that trauma is finally being studied and understood through science.
We’re seeing brain scans, nervous system studies, and all this data showing how trauma impacts everyone — not just those with the most visible scars.

And honestly, that’s great. It’s validating. It gives language to what so many of us have felt but couldn’t explain.

But sometimes I sit with clients (and with myself) and think — okay… but how does knowing this actually help me heal?

Because while research can move us forward in the science realm, it doesn’t automatically move us forward in the healing realm.

Healing is still relational.
It’s in how we breathe, how we reconnect, how we learn safety again.
It’s in giving the body and heart what the brain finally knows to be true — that we deserved safety all along.

Science can illuminate the path.
But it’s our humanity, our courage, and our connection that walk it.

Sometimes we need the reminder that our inner strength exists—even when we can't feel it yet. Trauma can make us doubt ourselves, but the courage, resilience, and wisdom are already there. Therapy helps you reconnect with what's been inside you all along.

Happy Diwali to those celebrating this week. This festival of lights reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we can find hope and renewal. The act of lighting a lamp; choosing light over darkness. This mirrors the work we do in therapy: small, intentional steps toward healing and growth.

🌊✨ Halfway there! ✨🌊

Just wrapped up Module 2 of my Level 1 Internal Family Systems training — and wow… what a journey so far. I’m feeling so grateful, inspired, and deeply moved, but also… honestly? Exhausted in the best possible way.

This work asks us to meet ourselves with such compassion — to sit with the parts we’ve protected, hidden, or silenced — and to extend that same gentle curiosity to others. Each session stretches me as both a counsellor and a human, and I can feel the shifts happening, layer by layer.

The end is in sight, and I’m filled with both relief and awe for everything this process is opening up.

Here’s to the courage it takes to keep going — even when it’s tender, tiring, and transformative. 💫

Today, on Truth and Reconciliation, I honour the resilience, wisdom, and voices of Indigenous peoples. At Turning Tides, my commitment as allies is woven into every act of care and every conversation. Reconciliation grows through compassion, humility, and the willingness to listen and learn.

May we walk together with respect, support healing with empathy, and renew hope—for today and the generations to come.

As the seasons shift...
September always feels like a time of transition—cooler mornings, shorter days, that feeling of turning a page.
It reminds me why I do this work.
Just like the weather changes without us choosing it, many of us carry patterns we didn't choose either. Ways of responding to stress, relationship dynamics, protective walls we built (or inherited) long ago.
Trauma doesn't just affect individuals—it ripples through families, shaping how we love, how we protect ourselves, how we show up in the world.
But here's what I want you to know: Understanding these patterns is the first step to breaking cycles and creating new, healthier legacies.
This season of change? It can be yours too.
You're not just healing yourself—you're changing the story for everyone who comes after you.

✨Exciting News✨

I’m about to begin my Internal Family Systems (IFS) Level 1 Training — a big step in deepening the ways I can support clients.

IFS is a powerful, compassionate approach to therapy that helps people connect with and heal their inner parts. With this training, I’ll be IFS Level 1 informed — meaning I’ll be able to bring the wisdom of this model into my sessions in a safe and supportive way.

I’m so excited to integrate this work into my practice and continue offering clients gentle, trauma-informed care rooted in both evidence and compassion. 💙

Stay tuned as I learn and grow — I can’t wait to share this journey with you.
