Anxiety, stress, anger, fear, grief, and depression show up differently for everyone. You might be feeling overwhelmed or isolated, unsure of where to start. Your self-talk might be very negative even if you're "doing great" on paper. You might be avoiding people and places, or struggling with conflict or big life changes. I also work with people who are having a complicated relationship with their body - maybe it's due to a medical condition, insomnia, struggling with eating, or trying to follow health advice that involves hard changes. Maybe your loved one is unwell and you're trying to provide support but keep yourself together.
I help people build their skills and self-awareness in order to change unhelpful cycles. I worked in Ottawa, Yukon, Calgary, and Vancouver at diabetes, cardiac rehab, heart transplant, and mental health clinics. I've also been a health entrepreneur co-founder for 20 years and understand the high's and low's of carrying a high level of responsibility.
I am honoured to do the work I do, supporting people to live with agency, autonomy, and connection. Working with people ranging in age from young adults to 80+ has been a huge gift in understanding just how short life is. You deserve to be heard, and to feel better.

What is most important to you? What do you want to be different? Let's make a plan. I love teaching people how thoughts/ feelings/ emotions/ and physiology are all interconnected. This knowledge can be used in countless ways to be more skillful in how you approach yourself, your struggles, and other people in your life. My approach is transparent and pragmatic, nonjudgemental and welcoming.

I aim to provide input that is helpful and relevant to each person's goals, context, budget, and time frames. Some people prefer more structure and direction, while some people prefer a less structured approach: we'll talk about this when we first meet. I provide input that is based on credible research.
