Your Path Back to Inner Peace and Finding Joy in Motherhood
Individual Counselling For Moms
I offer counselling sessions using video counselling making access to the support you need readily available and convenient - let's make life easier not harder! I also see clients including pre-teens and teens using the walk and talk nature therapy model. You can work with me from the comfort of your home at a time that works for you or join me outdoors. Book your free consultation today.
MaternalCare Counselling
MaternalCare Counselling is a safe and loving space for you to take care of yourself so you can regain confidence and be the mama you were meant to be. You deserve to be supported so you can find balance again. Despite the messages that still persist, you were not meant to go on this journey into motherhood alone - in fact our culture is one of very few in the world that expects this of mothers.
The pressure to do it perfectly causes women to feel like they are failing
There is a lot of shame and pressure mom’s feel. Many women feel isolated because they are just “supposed'“ to know what to do. Many women lose their “spark” and sense of happiness. If you feel overwhelmed and like you’re failing as a mom - trust me I’ve been there too - I promise you are not a failure. These feelings are normal, universal even, and I’m here to help you sort through it all so you can get back to your happy place.
PARENTING SUPPORT SESSIONS
As a family counsellor - parenting support sessions are also available online. Supporting you so you can better support your children. Whether that is helping them manage anxiety or teaching self-regulation, creating more family unity, or helping you manage your own parenting triggers from your childhood (which we all have!) - working together to achieve your parenting goals.
I offer joint counselling sessions to family members to help repair ruptures and reunite on the same page, as well as walk and talk sessions outdoors for all my clients including their pre-teen and teen children.
How does online counselling work?
Online counselling is similar to in-person counselling except we meet entirely through a video counselling platform. This allows us to connect easily, making support convenient and accessible.
You can contact me through my contact form or directly through email to ask questions or address concerns, or simply jump right to booking your first free consult or full length appointment through my online booking app.
Our first appointment will be an intake session so I can gather as much background information needed in order to determine the best course of treatment for you. This is a collaborative process. After that, attending your appointments over Zoom are a breeze!
A laptop or desktop computer work best but your tablet or smartphone will work too. Sessions are conducted on a secure, encrypted platform for your privacy and safety.
I’m so happy you are here and thinking about taking this step!
