Your child is struggling. You are stressed to the max with life in general. You can see the enormous impact that mental health has on your family and you don’t know what to do. You worry about your child and find yourself thinking “why are they like this?” multiple times a day. When he is really anxious about a test, or she is unable to manage her big emotions, or they have trouble making and keeping friends you can’t help but get worried about your child’s future- will things always be like this? You sometimes feel like screaming in to the void- HELP!

I work with children, teens, adults and couples facing life transitions, coping problems or mental health concerns. Depression and anxiety is very common, but I also work with loss, health concerns and family problems.Therapy is about change, but it is not about changing who we are. The person we are meant to be has been here all along. Sometimes we need help to reconnect. I work with my clients to explore patterns of behavior and thought that can keep us in small and narrow places, and to reconnect to our wiser, balanced and more joyful self.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with chronic stress and emotionally drained from the issues and conflicts in your life? I can help you navigate and cope with whatever challenges you're facing.

I specialize in couples counselling, separation and divorce mediation, family mediation, and parent coordination. With over 25 years of experience in conflict resolution, I have developed an approach that helps clients resolve issues quickly and efficiently to move forward and enjoy life fully.

I support adults and children in working through challenging emotions, behaviours, or traumatic events. I have a strong appreciation for the courage it takes to attend therapy, and I make it a priority to provide as safe an experience as possible. I believe that when people feel safe they can then begin to address and change problematic patterns of behaviour with the support of the therapist.
