Hi there, it's lovely to meet you. If you're reading this message, you've already taken your first big step on your journey to wellness. When things get tough and start to cast a gloomy shadow on every facet of your daily life, it can be easy to feel lost, overwhelmed, or hopeless. You might start second guessing yourself, over thinking everything, avoiding things, or feeling less motivated. When you're feeling out of control, it can be difficult to work through these struggles alone, and I am here to help you learn new skills and ways to cope with life's hardships.
I draw upon my extensive experience working with children, youth, and adults living with mental health challenges (specifically mood and behaviour, grief and loss, generational trauma, attachment wounds, life transitions, and parenting concerns), and am passionate about supporting people with their well being.
I firmly believe that resilience is at the core of each of our identities, and that we have the capacity for courage and the strength to work through adversity. You will be met with non-judgement, acceptance, and empathy. Reaching out for support can often feel scary, but know that I am here to walk beside you and advocate with and for you on your journey.
