Whatever comes up during our sessions, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I have been a witness to it, and I can tell you it is healing. The important element in my sessions is that we have trust and a connection to work together. That is why I offer no-charge consultations, so we can establish this when we first speak. Following both modern therapeutic methods as well as more global and Indigenous modalities, I help others to un-cover what they come to know. During our sessions, as we discover more about you, this information informs me to choose the best approach/method to hold you while you uncover your truth. The focus of the healing process is the restoration of relationships that have become out of balance. As a counsellor, one is a supporter in a shared experience of learning and growing, with assessments usually being completed by the person being helped. I use questions, storytelling, humour, modelling, somatic modalities, parts therapy, and other proven methods to raise your awareness of your wholeness and interrelationships within life. When called, I use the healing power of hypnosis for connecting within ourselves: spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional. I use a two-eyed approach of both Ericksonian and Indigenous knowledge when using hypnosis, as well as much as possible during our sessions.

Biography
In my private practice, I work one-to-one, in groups, and online with clients from all over the world, guiding others to un-cover possibilities and paths to life. In terms of my recognized titles, I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, a Counselling Hypnotherapist, a Hypnotherapy Teacher, and a Member of the Psychodynamic Association of Canada. When asked, I am a helper with ceremonial medicine, in gratitude to the Balinese and Cree knowledge keepers that have mentored me, guided me, and protected me as I learned what I can do and what I am still learning to do. My studies include an Advanced Counselling Skills Diploma, an Advanced Bachelor’s degree, and a graduate degree-a Post Baccalaureate Graduate Diploma. I am a Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner, a 240-hour, year-long, graduate level training in a psychotherapy mental health approach developed by Gabor Mate. I am also a Humanistic Neuro-Linguistic Programming Practitioner as well as a Master Practitioner of NLP. At present, my primary focus outside my practice is coaching mental health support workers and consulting around counselling and assessments within Aboriginal Services.

I have attended numerous other training in mental health, trauma, personal development, plant medicine and psychedelic integration, dream work, career and organizational development, to name only a few. I have also taken university graduate courses in financial planning, organizational development, and leadership. I have studied French (I am a bit of a Francophile), Spanish, Italian, German, Hungarian and Japanese. I am a lifelong learner and love to learn. My inspirations are work, travel, people, and deep curiosity. My personal journey, like you, includes growth both by default as well as by design, and inspires me to continue learning from knowledge keepers in meditation, qi-dong, spirit world, nature, ceremony, and overall how to live life from old knowledge into the present day.

I also draw from over 26 years of professional experience as a consultant, college instructor, a global coach and trainer, integrated with my practice. I work with people from all corners of the globe on-line and in-person training. I work, live, and create my responses in my daily life, whether I am in a business office, another country, or learning with my business, life and shamanic teachers.

I look forward to meeting you!

Manifesting Mindset & Coaching

It's time to think about success!

Mindset Coaching involves having your own

empowerment coach. Every moment of every

day you can coach yourself into the best thinking

and feeling state given the situation. What is true

for many people however is that they have a

disempowerment coach. We are all familiar with

this voice inside that questions our abilities,

doubts the possibilities and worries about

negative outcomes. We can choose to focus

instead on our empowerment coach who knows

we have to first diffuse stress and negativity and

then through the power ofthe present moment

align our thoughts and feelings with what we

want. I wrote,Manifesting Mindset and The

Happy Map as guidebooks to developing your

inner empowerment coach. They address how to

use your mindset to create happiness,

transform habits, experience health and

manifest your goals and dreams.

Mindset Coaching allows us to tap into the awesome

power that lies within and skillfully navigate the path of

thinking,feeling and acting in alignment with what we

want. It feels empowering, confidence building and in

many ways like pure magic. There is nothing more

satisfying and gratifying than knowing we have our own

back,we can steer the ship of our thoughts and feelings

and create the experiences we want in life.

Chakra and Aura Repair - Creating Balance in Our Energy System

If you are feeling imbalanced, dissatisfied, unable to express yourself, ungrounded or simply not flowing with life, then it may be that one or more of your chakras is out of balance or closed.

Chakra balancing is about creating harmony between will and divine purpose, and our emotional state. When we are in harmony then it is possible for our life purpose to arise, as we become able to place our focus on our heart and the communication with our divine self.

Chakra balancing not only repairs individual chakras but also helps to reconnect all your chakras so that your energy flows evenly through you again, restoring a wonderful sense of balance and bringing your life back into alignment.

During this healing session we will clear and repair your chakras and bring them back into alignment with your aura. You will also be given a mix of flower remedies to take for the following week in order to continue the chakra clearing journey. Once your chakras are aligned and flowing again you will feel clearer and lighter.

A Chakra is an area on the body of intense and focused energy.

As a chakra spins it acts as an opening, through which life energy flows. “Chakra” is the Sanskrit for wheel and indeed these spinning vortices of energy resemble wheels.

There are seven major chakras located from the crown of the head, along the spine, to the base of the spine. As energy is taken in through a chakra it is then distributed around the body. When a chakra is open and balanced it can feed the area of the body, to which it relates, keeping the body in health. Open chakras give us a sense of balance and an openess towards life.

Helping you to cleanse and detoxify your organs and body systems from acids, toxins and pesticides, and to start the process of cellular regeneration that leads to true healing.
