After completing my education in Montreal, I returned home to Nova Scotia, where I’ve been practicing as a registered psychologist for the past 14 years in both public and private healthcare settings. My approach is to foster a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and goals openly and without judgment. I work with adults facing a wide range of psychological and psychosocial challenges, including anxiety, depression and other mood disorders, chronic pain, trauma and PTSD, addictions, burnout, stress, and bullying.

It’s difficult to watch your usually thoughtful child/teen struggling with their big emotions. Your child, who is usually wise beyond their years, becomes quickly unglued. You’re pretty sure that anxiety, worries or low self-esteem are hiding under the big tears, emotional meltdowns, ‘sassy’ attitude and anger. While you desperately want to be there to support your child and help them through this turbulent time, the accumulation of stressors from the demands of life and parenting makes it hard for you to be the parent you want to be in those worst moments, leaving you feeling unsure of what will help.

Accepting NEW clients online or In person- Whether you are seeking counselling for the first time or returning for new support, it can be difficult to reach out. I work with clients who may be feeling “stuck” or “not like themselves” and wanting to work through why this might be. It could be related to relationships, mental health such as depression or anxiety, lack of confidence or self-esteem, work conflict, high self-expectations or any other number of life stressors. You are the expert in your life and use a collaborative approach to ensure you feel supported in session and empowered to use the tools provided out of session.

Think you might be autistic or have ADHD? I'm a neurodivergent therapist who is interested in exploring with you! ADHD is more than just difficulty focusing; it’s also poor time management, lack of organization, forgetfulness, and avoidance. And yes, medication can help you focus, but it will not help you be more organized. You've probably already done some google-ing to see what might help you get your life back on track. Looking up the information is easy, it's the doing that is hard! This is where I come in. I can help you stay accountable to the changes we will make to improve your executive functioning skills.

I provide holistic psychotherapy and wellness counselling to individuals and couples (18 y/o and up). I recognize that working through difficult life circumstances and/or challenging relationships can be stressful and isolating, resulting in feelings of anxiety, low mood, poor coping skills or a general sense of being stuck in a cycle of unhealthy patterns. To move forward, it’s important to honour our lived experiences, accept that deeper emotions are appropriate in certain situations and build trust in ourselves to know the difference.

Sometimes life can all add up and we find ourselves wondering “how did I get here?” or feeling stuck, not knowing what direction to take our first step. That is where therapy can help. My approach to therapy is that of genuine care and compassion balanced with gentle nudging towards the life you want to live. How do you want to show up to the world? to yourself? The answer may not be all that clear right now, but if you choose, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your therapeutic journey as you gain an understanding of your stuck points, build on coping skills, reach your goals and come out the other side of the tough stuff.

I truly believe that everyone can benefit from therapy, however some of my areas of interest include: stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, self-esteem and exploring inner child work. I personally believe in a client-centered approach and will draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities such as CBT or Internal Family Systems, however my personal philosophy is to work from an integrative, psychodynamic lens.
