Welcome! Modern-day motherhood is often painted as a beautiful and purely joyous season of life; this myth can leave both mothers and fathers vulnerable to the unexpected events, uncertainty, stress and worry that can occur along the path to and through parenthood. The truth? Parenthood is comprised of both magical moments and challenging hiccups; parental support is essential. My virtual practice provides individual counselling to mothers (and their partners) residing in British Columbia, Canada. Treatment is available from pre-conception, through fertility, loss, pregnancy, birth, the postpartum year, and into early parenthood.

I work weekends/evenings as well as weekdays, in person (Shawnessy Calgary) or online. I believe in the resilience of the human spirit and our ability to heal. I also know that we can get lost, and having someone support us as we navigate our path back to health can be life-changing. Therapy can be scary, and you may not be sure where to start. This is a shared experience, and together we will work to put the presenting problem into words and create a plan for our work. If you have made it this far in your search, you are looking for something. Even if you can not put it into words let's chat. I look forward to working with you.

Hello! Trauma is a deeply distressing experience that overwhelms our ability to cope and can stem from various life events. When left unaddressed, it may lead to lasting effects on mental health such as PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Anxiety is one of the most common challenges today. While some stress can be motivating, persistent anxiety often disrupts well-being, carrying unresolved trauma into the present and affecting daily life. You're not alone. Through trauma-informed care using EMDR, we’ll work together to process your past, build resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered you!
