welcome to new growth counselling


At New Growth Counselling, I offer trauma-informed, client-centred, and strengths-based counselling services for adults as well as groups affected by shared traumatic experiences.

My approach is integrative—working with the nervous system and body, alongside emotions, thoughts, and relationships—to support healing, emotional growth, and resilience. I often draw on EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and parts work to help process experiences, strengthen inner resources, and create meaningful, lasting change.

In our work together, I provide a safe and supportive space, help build emotional awareness and tolerance, and use evidence-based methods to foster psychological well-being and transformation.

Whether you’re seeking help to heal from recent or resurfaced trauma, navigate life’s challenges, or make meaningful changes in your well-being, I’m here to support your journey toward greater psychological health.


looking for support?

If you're looking for meaningful, trauma-informed support, I hope the services at New Growth Counselling can be a good fit.

While one-to-one counselling is currently full and operating on a waitlist, you're welcome to add your name to the list here if you'd like to be contacted when a space becomes available.

I’m creating new ways to support healing and emotional readiness—including a self-paced course, Preparing for Therapy, and future online and group offerings. Feel free to sign up for updates if you'd like to hear more as these become available.

For organizations or leaders seeking support for a team after a critical incident or shared traumatic experience, please complete our Organizational Support Request Form. I’ll follow up promptly to discuss your needs and the next steps.


areas of service

At New Growth Counselling, I specialize in helping adults and organizations in the days, weeks, and months following a traumatic or overwhelming event — a time when the impact is fresh, disruptive, and in need of focused, compassionate care.

I also support those experiencing symptoms from past trauma resurfacing — even when it’s not immediately obvious that past experiences are the cause. These reactions can emerge during stressful times, life transitions, or even positive changes, leaving you feeling unsettled, disconnected, or not quite yourself.

You may be:

COPING WITH THE IMMEDIATE EFFECTS OF A RECENT EVENT

  • Feeling on edge, restless, or unable to relax

  • Experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, or vivid memories

  • Struggling to sleep or concentrate

  • Avoiding reminders of what happened, or feeling “numb”

  • Overwhelmed by waves of emotion — or unable to feel much at all

  • Noticing changes in appetite, motivation, or daily routines

NAVIGATING RESURFACED TRAUMA

  • Experiencing emotional or physical reactions that seem “out of the blue”

  • Feeling more reactive or sensitive than usual, without knowing why

  • Struggling with old patterns or coping habits that no longer work

  • Noticing these reactions during transitions — even positive ones like a new job, relationship, or move

FACING A SUDDEN LOSS OR CHANGE

  • Grieving after a death, separation, or other significant loss

  • Supporting friends, colleagues, or a team after tragedy

LOOKING FOR ORGANIZATIONAL TRAUMA SUPPORT

I work with teams, workplaces, and community groups after abnormal or critical incidents to provide:

  • Immediate emotional support in the aftermath of a crisis

  • Safe, guided debriefing spaces to process what happened

  • Early recovery strategies to restore stability, connection, and capacity

Whether you’re a leader seeking support for your staff or part of a group impacted by an event, I bring a trauma-informed, neuroscience-grounded approach to help people feel heard, supported, and equipped to move forward.


my approach

At New Growth Counselling, I integrate both body and mind to support healing and growth. My work draws on EMDR, parts work, trauma-informed and client-centred practices, and a relational systems lens. Together, these approaches help uncover the roots of distress, strengthen inner resources, and create lasting change.
