You are the expert on you

Hi, I'm Dana. I'm a counsellor, a human and a recovering people-pleaser. For over 15 years I have supported women to overcome the obstacles that get in the way of living a full and meaningful life. 

 

If you are struggling to show up as yourself in this world, never quite feeling “good enough,” or feeling stuck, rejected or broken, I'd like to help. Your story, your challenges and your motivations are unique to you. Together, we'll explore what works best, so you can begin making changes that support the life you want to live.

Areas of Practice 
Support tailored to what you're needing

You don't need a diagnosis or the right words to reach out. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck, develop new ways of responding to life's challenges, and help you build a healthier relationship with yourself.

 

I support women who struggle with anxiety, low self-esteem, body image concerns, compulsive eating, depression, and relationship challenges that may be rooted in attachment wounds or early trauma.

​

My goal is to help you feel more confident, more connected, and more comfortable being yourself.

What you can expect

A Compassionate Space

​

We begin with curiosity and care. There is no pressure for you to know what to say or where to begin.

Thoughtful, Evidence- Based Approach

​

My work is trauma-informed and attachment based and draws from ACT, EFIT and ART. Rather than using one approach for everyone, I tailor our work to your needs,

Meaningful Change

​ We build new ways of responding that feel compassionate, practical and sustainable.
