You’re here because you feel stuck
& overwhelmed
You’ve tried to work through your issues, but no matter what you’ve tried, it feels like progress has been slow—or nonexistent.
You’ve heard good things about EMDR, and you’re ready to make real, lasting changes.
You want to move past whatever's holding you back and finally see real changes in your life.
What if I told you it doesn’t have to be this way?
Imagine truly enjoying every part of your life and feeling at peace with yourself.
I get it—if past therapy hasn’t given you the results you’ve hoped for, you might be feeling uncertain.
That’s exactly why EMDR is different.
EMDR goes beyond traditional therapy. It addresses the root cause of what’s been holding you back, helping you release those deep-seated beliefs, emotions, and physical sensations that are keeping you stuck.
Through simple, back-and-forth eye movements, EMDR works with your nervous system to help clear out the emotional and physical tension that’s been trapped.
This process rewires neural connections in your brain, allowing your body to finally release what’s been blocking you from moving forward.

EMDR Counselling may be right for you if…
Relationship Anxiety or Insecurity – You constantly worry about your relationship, feeling uncertain about your partner’s feelings or fearing they’ll leave, leaving you stuck in a cycle of anxiety.
Low Confidence or Self-Doubt – You often question your ability to make the right relationship choices, leading to uncertainty and impacting the quality and depth of your connections.
Difficulty Setting Boundaries – You find it challenging to set clear boundaries in your relationships, leading to feelings of being drained, overwhelmed, or taken for granted.
Unhealthy Relationship Patterns – You notice repeating, unhealthy cycles in your relationships—whether it's fear of abandonment, pushing people away, or staying in toxic dynamics—that keep you from experiencing secure connections.
Grief from Past Relationships – Unresolved grief from past relationships, whether from a breakup, loss, or betrayal, is holding you back from fully healing and moving forward in your current relationships.
Sexual Issues and Disconnect – You may experience low libido, emotional shutdown, or difficulty connecting intimately with your partner, preventing you from experiencing fulfilling, connected sex.
Let go of overwhelm, break free from feeling stuck, and create lasting change.

How We’ll Work Together
01
We begin by understanding the challenges you're facing and what you want to achieve. Together, we'll explore your current issues and set clear goals for your therapy.
Step 1: set the stage
Next, we’ll dive into identifying recurring patterns in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and trace these patterns back to their root causes. This helps us pinpoint the areas that need attention.
Step 2: identify patterns
02
Before we begin processing, we'll ensure you feel safe and grounded with practical tools that help you manage overwhelming feelings, making the process more comfortable and effective.
Step 3: build safety
03
Once we’ve identified the key targets, we’ll use EMDR’s back-and-forth eye movements to help your brain process and release stuck emotions, beliefs, and sensations, allowing for deep healing.

Step 4: process with EMDR
After processing, we'll integrate the changes to ensure symptoms no longer cause issues. You’ll also gain tools to apply your new skills and insights in daily life, supporting continued growth outside of therapy.

What’s the difference between Relationship Counselling and EMDR Counselling?
EMDR is a specialized therapy that can address relationship challenges and a range of other issues, such as low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, and grief. It’s often integrated with relationship counseling to support both healing and personal growth.
EMDR Counselling FAQs
Do you accept health insurance?
As a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC#13309) my services are covered by a number of extended health benefit plans. Please consult with your service provider to determine the type of coverage you have. Clients are responsible for paying for sessions and then submitting their claim to their insurance provider. On request, a receipt will be provided for you to submit for reimbursement.
How many sessions will I need?
It’s hard to predict exactly how many EMDR sessions you'll need, as everyone heals at their own pace. While EMDR can be quicker than traditional therapy, some may need just a few sessions, while others may require up to 6 months for lasting change.
Are there any risks to counselling?
While counselling can be an excellent source of support it’s normal to experience stronger than usual emotions when exploring difficult topics and trying out new behaviours. If you feel uncomfortable with the interventions I suggest or with the pace, know that we can adjust things as needed.
Can EMDR be done virtually?
Absolutely! EMDR works just as effectively in online sessions. We use techniques like audio, tapping, or eye movements through the screen, allowing you to experience the same benefits from the comfort of your home.
Can I use EMDR alongside individual counselling?
I offer 50 and 75 minute EMDR sessions. Longer sessions are typically recommended for EMDR.
How long are EMDR sessions?
How is EMDR used in Relationship Counselling?
