Every person is unique as her/his circumstances differ. I believe one needs to feel understood before any changes can occur. I will be on your side and understand what you are going through. You will never feel judged, and together we will draw a plan to get you where you want to be. I support adults dealing with issues such as depression and anxiety, and dealing with major life changes. I help people cope with work-related life stressors, relationship/marriage breakdowns, and adjusting/planning the retirement phase. I am a seasoned therapist with experience in hospital, school board, family health team and private agencies.
I work with a variety of modalities to draw from in order for you to achieve your goals. I will explain and involve you in therapy so you will always feel in control. I believe that by empowering clients they regain the confidence needed to get better.
When you call for the first time , I anticipate that you will be a little nervous. It is only natural, normal and expected. Remember I am here to help you, I will do my best to make you feel at ease as we connect for the initial 15 m free meet and greet. I look forward to working with you to embark on a new path.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
