Are you a parent, couple, young person, or entire family seeking to enrich your life and navigate relational challenges? I specialize in working with families and couples, drawing on my training in Attachment, Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to cultivate meaningful, long-lasting connection. Many of us are feeling lonelier than ever, and the weight of uncertainty and the absence of manuals to our relationships is isolating. As a parent, former teacher and psychotherapist, my skillset is helping caregivers and young people with the complex relational and behavioural challenges they face.

My approach centers on cultivating resilience through relational connections - both within yourself and with others. I believe that healing and growth occur in the context of supportive relationships and that resilience IS relational! Our conversations will provide emotional safety, deep trust and rich supports which you can access outside of therapy.
I know that validation alone isn't enough - you need solutions, fast. Whether you’re facing parenting challenges, relationship issues, or family transitions, my goal is to empower you to thrive as individuals and as a unit. The results of my work? A re-wired relational system that is calm, connected and collaborative!
