I take a holistic approach to therapy and specialize in anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, chronic pain and special needs parent concerns. As a mom of 2 special needs children, I understand your concerns for your children, not only when they are little but as they grow older into adulthood. If you're looking for a licensed professional who will be there to help you work through difficult feelings and build skills for improving your life, we might be a great fit. I can help you take a real look at your emotions, core values or lifestyle and empower you to make some real, attainable & positive choices.
My areas of specialty include supporting neurodivergent individuals (i.e. Autism - level 1, ADHD, etc..) with or without their parents, chronic pain, life coaching and addictions. Using a comprehensive approach to help support your goals and needs using a variety of therapeutic modalities including CBT, DBT and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy.
With over 20 years of nursing experience and recent Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) graduate, I am a patient, compassionate listener with an open, non-judgmental heart. Through "talk therapy", I support people in exploring their patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours that may no longer be serving them.
