So many people come to me feeling overwhelmed and lost, not because they lack skills or ambition, but because something deeper feels “off.” Maybe your career no longer matches who you’re becoming. Maybe you’re craving more meaning, more creativity, or simply more peace. Inevitably, when your inner world shifts, your work life often needs to…
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), or “tapping,” is a powerful mind-body tool I’ve been integrating more into my practice. It involves tapping on specific acupressure points while focusing on a distressing emotion, belief, or memory. Let’s be honest: EFT can sound a little strange at first. But it works—and there’s a reason so many counselling therapists…
When people find out I’m a counselling therapist, the first thing they often ask is, “Isn’t that… heavy?” And yes—it can be. You’re sitting with people’s pain, trauma, grief, and confusion.

One of the standout moments…

By combining evidence-based frameworks with artistic and holistic methods, I create a space where…
As we step into 2025, I’m taking a moment to reflect on the journey that was 2024. It was a year filled with personal and professional growth, opportunities, and meaningful experiences that deepened my passion for counselling, career counselling, and personal development. One highlight was being featured on This Hour Has 22 Minutes, where I…
Let’s talk about self-employment and why I love working for myself. Many clients with salaries often ask, “How do you do it without benefits?” or “How do you manage without a pension or regular paychecks?” Running a business can seem scary! My answer? It doesn’t have to be scary. It’s all about a mindset shift.…
As a Registered Counselling Therapist offering nature-informed therapy and as a professional collaborator with Forest Schools, I’ve witnessed the powerful healing benefits of nature therapy firsthand. Using nature-based approaches in counselling helps clients tap into emotional healing through outdoor environments. I also train other therapists on how to use ecotherapy in their practice, backed by…
Tarot, often associated with divination, has a growing presence in psychology, particularly as a projective technique found in expressive therapy. In this context, Tarot is not about predicting the future but about tapping into a client’s intuition and subconscious.
