​Welcome to Pathways to Healing

In recent years I realized that the path to healing is a path to the self.  What I mean by the self is what is sometimes referred to as the inner child - the spontaneous and authentic part of us experienced as inner freedom, aliveness, and an openness to life and love.  During childhood (or any other developmental stage), various experiences may leave the inner child wounded, and many of us may develop identities, inner images, life stories, and behaviours based on these early experiences. These wounds may become structured physically in the brain (as neural pathways) and body (as muscular tensions), and form unconscious relational patterns that affect the way we perceive reality.  Through the therapeutic process, many clients realize that their present issues and discomforts are rooted in these early experiences. 

My intention as a therapist is to support clients to explore and move beyond the difficult or limiting experiences, and provide an opportunity for people to attune to, and reconnect with their most authentic self.  I see the therapeutic process as an inner journey of self-knowledge, awareness, acceptance and rediscovery, which facilitates choice, change, healing, and an opportunity to live more authentically and enjoyably in the present.  In the words of C.G. Jung:

Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart
Who looks outside, dreams
Who looks inside, awakes

It is my hope that the information presented in these pages gives you a sense of my work.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions.  Thank you for visiting!
