Sometimes life can present situations and experiences that can leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and alone. Although reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, it can also be an opportunity to explore new possibilities. My passion for counselling has always aligned with my personal and professional values of compassion, non-judgment, mutuality and respect. I enjoy meeting people where they are on their journey, focusing on their strengths, and supporting them in the direction they wish to go. The power of human resiliency and the capacity of all people to heal are the foundations from which I work.
I am a Registered Social Worker and Registered Clinical Counsellor with over 25 years experience working in the field of mental health. I have worked with people from many different walks of life. I have training in a variety of therapeutic modalities and employ an integrated approach in accordance with your goals and the direction you wish to go.
If you are at a place on your journey where you are struggling and are curious about what counselling could offer, I would be honoured to support you. I am here to hold space for you in a safe, trusting, trauma-informed, and non-judgmental environment, to meet you where you wish to begin, listen to your story, and walk along side you, so to speak.
