I have experience treating adults, children and adolescents who are struggling with anxiety, relationships, parenting practices, anger management, grief/loss, and separation and divorce. I also have experience and training in marital/couples counselling.

With two decades of collaborative experience alongside psychiatrists, psychologists, and healthcare experts, I've dedicated myself to enhancing clients' mental wellness. Recognizing that pain and suffering are universal, I've come to understand that mental wellbeing hinges on how we process these experiences. Consequently, feelings of anger, stress, self-doubt, anxiety, and depression often permeate our lives. Do you find yourself withdrawing or losing control when adversity strikes? If you struggle with motivation, energy, or suspect depression, consider seeking support. I'm here to accompany you on your path to recovery.

Everyone struggles in life and sometimes those challenges can feel overwhelming. Asking for help can be hard but it demonstrates strength and courage. We all have a need to feel seen, heard and understood—especially during our most difficult times. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process your thoughts and feelings. Together we will expand on, and enhance your self-awareness and ability to cope with life’s most challenging moments.

I primarily work in areas including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, sleep, stress, parenting , coping skills, women’s issues, relationships, conflict, divorce, behavioral issues, and anger management.

I practice within an anti-oppressive framework, using a whole-person approach. I work with individuals, couples and families to enhance personal and relationship goals. Counseling should be a collaborative process, based on goals and values of compassion and authenticity. As a holistic practitioner, I use multiple approaches in therapy, believing strongly in finding a fit, which is personal and unique to each of us. I have experience working with people who have been involved in the justice and child welfare systems, experienced childhood/adult abuse, oppression, and multiple/complex trauma, have addictions, and a wide variety of other issues.

Having over thirty years experience, I offer compassionate, professional therapy. The first step in looking for a therapist, is to check out credentials and experience. Even more important is fit and a feeling of being understood. At the front end of things, what I can say is that I am committed to working with you based on current best practices. I offer help with a wide range of counselling issues including trauma, attachment related concerns with adults, grief and loss, addictions, childhood issues, family concerns to name but a few.

I offer the opportunity to experience “Aha!” moments, explore patterns of behaviour and examine the how and why. My hope is that you will gain clarity and insight into yourself, your strengths and build the skills you need to consider different ways of coping with life’s challenges. As a Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience in community health, my approach to therapy is eclectic and relies heavily on relationship.

***IN PERSON AND ONLINE SESSIONS AVAILABLE. Our work has been informed by a number of different therapeutic models. In the last sixteen years we have been dedicated to integrate Narrative Ideas and Social Justice models into our practice. In those conversations that happen in our offices, people can reclaim their own preferred stories and re-define themselves by centering on stories that don't restrict their lives to the definition that the problem imposes on them. It's in the core of our work to believe that people that seeks for counselling come to it with a number of skills, beliefs, values, commitments and abilities.

Reaching out is a brave step. Sometimes stress builds, life happens or our history including trauma, unresolved conflict or relationship patterns can leave us feeling stuck. Playing the same tapes over and over. A negative relationship with ourselves. Facing the same patterns or facing unfamiliar situations, challenges or decisions. It can be exhausting and feel isolating. If you are looking to address the root of the issue and find support through change, then reach out.
