Sometimes we need support navigating the complexities of life. As individuals, we experience these complexities in unique ways, often feeling alone. You may be navigating grief, anxiety, anger, fear, trauma, relational concerns, transitions, self-worth or feeling overwhelmed. My goal is to cultivate a trusting, accepting relationship that holds space for your unique story, a space where you can feel seen, accepted, supported, and valued.

I am committed to seeing people as more than just the problems they may be struggling with. I value conversations that allow the richness of people's lives to become more visible and accessible to them.

I see adults across the life span in relation to a range of life concerns, including: depression; anxiety; work-life balance; disordered eating and body image difficulties; sexual, interpersonal and workplace trauma; relationship issues; grief and loss; life transitions and identity questions.

A good counselling relationship brings a trusted friend to this task.
Difficult problems are not so much solved, as outgrown.  I help people do this through the in-depth and compassionate examination of both the present and past, both inner and outer worlds, in an effort to understand the relationship between them.  When this is done with sincerity, the result is that we come to know and value ourselves in a totally new way.  It becomes possible to free ourselves from negative patterns that often go back generations.

I truly admire the courage it takes to admit you need support and begin making changes in your relationship.
Relationships often attract us with their promise of heaven, but can quickly end up feeling like hell. Emotional distance, loneliness, escalating fights, affairs, and addictions may leave you wondering what happened to the bright future you once envisioned with your partner. If this sounds like your marriage or relationship, know that you can come back from the brink. Relationship troubles can be confusing and stressful, but couples counselling can help you and your partner heal from past emotional injuries, rebuild a sense of closeness, and kick start communication on gridlocked issues.

Beyond general mental health issues, I like to guide clients through complex life transitions and shifts—career changes, relocation, aging, divorce, identity shifts—and address unrecognized grief, including losses society rarely recognizes, as well as relationship challenges.
For many people, life can feel like a series of obstacles, and therapy is a way to help you regain control, purpose, and clarity. I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space—where you can bring your full self, with all your layers and complexities—to safely explore challenges, dismantle self-limiting beliefs, and gain new insights. Blending creative thinking with flexible approaches, each session is uniquely tailored to your needs. Together, we’ll confront feelings such as anxiety, shame, or self-doubt, helping you discover new possibilities for growth, hope, and resilience, and ultimately find your way forward.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
