In my counselling approach, my focus is establishing trusting relationships with my clients. I offer accessible and personalized counseling sessions for adults, children, youth, caregivers, and families, available both in person and online from the convenience of your home. I work at a pediatrics clinic and a non-profit agency, where my focus is on providing support for children, youth, and parents. Prior to embracing my role as a clinical counsellor, I served as an office manager at Ministry of Children and Development, an experience that inspired me to pursue a more active role in supporting clients.

I work with adults who are holding more than most people can see. Grief, anticipatory loss, caregiver burnout, dementia, chronic illness, anxiety, depression, and major life transition often all at once. Many of my clients are supporting a loved one through long-term care or end-of-life, while quietly pushing their own needs aside. You may look like you’re coping on the outside, but inside feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. This is where we begin. I offer trauma-informed grief counselling and caregiver support in a steady, compassionate, real space.

I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and have a passion for supporting young people on their journey to becoming the best versions of themselves. I work with children and youth who are having challenges with being able to focus, have ADHD/ADD, self esteem issues, experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, lack of motivation, as well as those with learning disabilities. My goal is to develop a deep connection with every person I work with, allowing my clients to feel safe in what may be a vulnerable space. I will ensure that every person who steps into my counselling room feels accepted and non-judged.

I’m here to support you. I’ll listen carefully to understand your story so we can find a way forward together. Hard times, loss, trauma, and life struggles can make us unable to see our inner strengths. Sometimes, we need support to unlearn negative beliefs and reconnect with our resilience. Whether you're struggling with personal challenges or relationships with yourself or others I’m here to help. I have been guiding students in their personal growth, building confidence, and navigating life’s challenges with strength and self-awareness for over a decade.

You may be the person everyone relies on—the one who keeps going and appears fine on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted underneath. I work with adults and women experiencing anxiety, burnout, stress, trauma, low self-worth, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many struggle with overthinking, people-pleasing, and self-criticism. Together, we'll explore patterns that keep you stuck, build practical coping tools, and help you feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally steady. You don't have to carry it all alone.

When we feel overwhelmed, trapped, powerless, or simply confused about where we are right now, what we need, why we find ourselves repeating the same patterns, or how to move forward, seeking counselling can be an important first step. My clients may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions and grief. Whether working individually or with couples, we explore beliefs, recurring patterns, past wounds, present challenges, and goals while building on strengths, resilience, hope, and deeper understanding. Meaningful change begins with the relationship we have with ourselves first.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship pain, or simply feeling stuck?> If so, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I hope to create a space for real conversations, not checklists, where you can show up just as you are. Growth can be messy, and often feel like a "2 steps forward, 1 step back" kind of process, and that’s part of being human. Together, we’ll move at your pace, with curiosity, compassion, and care. If you’re ready to take your first step to try something new together, I’ll be honoured to walk alongside you.
