I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and author of "The Brain Fit Tool Kit" and "The Brain Fit Super Powers". I am trained in EMDR and Advanced EMDR and Play Therapy, and I am a Level 3 Certified NSST Therapist and Instructor. I have loved my time working with children, teens, adults, and families as a counsellor for 20 years. I strongly believe that children, youth and adults will thrive when the brain and body feel safe, connected, and loved. Dysregulation in our brains and bodies happens all the time but sometimes our emotional responses can impact our nervous system, ability to control our feelings and behaviors, our overall happiness, and our relationships with others. Having the awareness of what dysregulation is, how this feels in our bodies, and having tools to help ourselves and others when this happens is very empowering,
Over the years I have developed my own tools such as the Brain Barometer that blends the practices of EMDR, attunement, neuroscience, metaphors with sand tray and art therapy techniques, mindfulness, informed IFS, and embodiment awareness. The goal of my work with children, teens, adults, and families is to help them integrate their left brains with their right brains and to feel the power of regulating and connecting the mind and body, I will also work with and support families along the way so that when dysregulation is felt in the family, everyone will have the tools and strategies necessary to co-regulate and build new habits and new neuropathways together.
