Life can feel complicated when you've struggled with your weight for as long as you can remember. There’s a deep emotional weight that comes with navigating body image, societal and cultural expectations, and food as a coping strategy. Maybe you're trying to adjust to life on GLP-1 medications and grappling with unexpected changes, or you're post-bariatric surgery and feeling unsure about your next steps. You might also be dealing with the challenges of emotional or binge eating.

I believe hope is a practice that relies on creativity. Over the years, I’ve used creative thinking and art-making to navigate my own life—moving back to Canada from Australia, then choosing to study art therapy after a successful career as a strategic designer. We will co-create the activities based on your needs, blending art therapy with a range of methods and tools - client-centred, systems thinking, somatic, nature-based, mindfulness, and strengths-based. I see my role as a facilitator—creating space and bearing witness to the answers that already lie within you. Just show up as you are — no art experience or talent is needed.

Does it seem like even though you try so hard, you just can't feel confident and happy? You're exhausted. You overthink. You criticize yourself. You should have figured things out by now, but you feel stuck and it's not for lack of trying. In your life this can look like anxiety, lack of motivation, procrastinating, impostor syndrome, over-eating, low self-esteem, unsatisfying relationships, a discouraging job or even depression, and feeling like you’re not enjoying life and don’t know what to do anymore. I know these feelings too and how exhausting it feels and I want to let you in on a little secret. This is not your fault.

Therapy requires a strong trusting relationship between therapist and client, in a space that is safe and receptive to honest thoughts and feelings. Trust also builds over time, as the therapy brings more peace, happiness, and clarity to your life. I bring my full presence and compassion to first understanding your experience and then applying my expertise to helping you. I understand that some people seek out a therapist to address a specific mental health concern while others are looking for more general support to improve their lives and happiness. In all cases the relationship between client and therapist is critical.

Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future, a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead.

People come to therapy for many reasons but often the heart of the matter is that they want to live their "one wild and precious life" Mary Oliver Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I work gently and compassionately with you.

In over thirty years working as a psychologist, I have become convinced that the most effective way to help others is through a collaborative approach. When the client and therapist work together to find solutions, the emphasis is placed on the client’s individual perspective and the strengths and successes they have already achieved. At the core of therapy, I believe, is a non-judgemental and compassionate view of how everyone’s personal journey involves overcoming suffering and moving towards self-acceptance, empowerment and emotional well- being. I also provide Supervision for therapists.
