Let’s walk the path together. Sometimes we feel out of sync with life. It is natural. Difficulties can leave anyone feeling lonely, stuck, overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, lost, empty or traumatized. I want you to know that if you're in pain, I can sit with you and support you. If you need a safe, compassionate and non-judgmental place to share your deep core wounds, traumas, fears, anger, sadness and difficult emotions, you can reach out to me. If you are a leading light who needs assistance coping with the burden of living up to your own or others' expectations, please contact me. We can explore the possibilities together.

Congratulations, you have taken the first step towards healing! Recognizing that you need support on this path of healing is the first of many milestones. When situations occur in our lives, whether in the past or present, naturally as human beings we begin to feel depressed, anxious, isolated, and etc. Simple day-to-day activities, which were once like second nature, have become very difficult. Perhaps days, months or even years have gone by and you still feel “stuck” – if this sounds familiar, we can work together to learn how to cope and live with a new reality.

I am an experienced, caring counsellor and a Masters level registered clinical social worker with a passion for helping people manage life difficulties. With a background in child welfare, I offer over 15 years of experience in family-centered, strengths-based work with children, youth, and families. I specialize in engaging families in telling their stories in order to identify their strengths, worries, trauma histories, and stressors. I recognize that respect, listening, and helping individuals to find their own solutions is important for their mental health and well-being. I strive for authentic engagement with my clients.

When life gets hard to deal with, it is good to have someone to talk to; Someone with the expertise, professionalism, and compassion to listen, ask the right questions to create clarity and help us find the solution or at least see the light at the end of the tunnel. When dealing with mental and emotional pain, someone with the proper training and experience could be the right person to turn to. I utilize over 10 years of experience in therapy practice to the full benefit of my clients dealing with grief, depression, and anxiety, including those dealing with chronic illnesses such as cancer, as well as youth and parents'

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR PHONE/VIDEO*** When our thoughts get the better of us and we feel overwhelmed, I believe there is always hope to reach the peace for which we all yearn. Through psychotherapy, I support clients struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, identity, and relationships. We all have times when we aren’t sure where we stand in our lives and with others, so I offer a safe and welcoming space where clients can express and find themselves. We are complex individuals with our own unique stories made up of our experiences. Therapy is an empowering space where we can explore these without judgment.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS: IN-PERSON & PHONE/VIDEO*** We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, we see our clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

Do you struggle with stress that affects your day to day life? Do you feel frustrated by family conflict or feel overwhelmed by caregiver burnout? Do you feel exhausted just getting through the day? Do you wonder if your life could be better? Now more than ever, people are feeling overwhelmed with navigating family dynamics, finding peace in relationships, and establishing ways of coping with responsibilities. Not addressing these issues can lead to exhaustion and a breakdown in relationships. I believe there is hope.

Questioning your self-worth and purpose in life? Are your relationships in jeopardy due to past traumas and life stressors? Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed and don't know where to turn? You are not alone! I believe that people’s stories should be heard, acknowledged and validated, as bottling these stories inside often leads to more suffering. My specialty is working with individuals who experience anxiety, relationship strain, addictions and inter generational trauma. In this trusting and therapeutic relationship, each individual will develop effective and sustainable coping skills that will bring clarity and healing

Thank you for looking at my profile. It means you have taken the first step towards self care. Looking for a way to take care of your Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Self. Good for you!

My focus is on creating an environment that fosters & supports growth. We collaborate to explore what you truly want & what is holding you back from having what you want. We create individualized plans that move YOU toward the success that matters to you.

As we go through life we enter many different chapters, with those can come a variety of challenges and feelings. If you’re experiencing feelings of stress, loss, anxiety, or overwhelm, we'll work collaboratively, focusing on your personal strengths and needs.

I want to understand the intricate details of your life that make you uniquely you and would be honoured to facilitate the process of your self discovery and healing. I love working with individuals in all walks of life including but not limited to individuals experiencing anxiety, panic and/or anxiety attacks, phobias, issues controlling anger, individuals wanting to improve self-esteem, those suffering from grief and loss of relationships, addictions, as well as those individuals looking for support with general life stressors.

Life is a journey: it has a beginning; it has an end. The journey between these two points can take us on many different paths. The path we travel is uniquely our own. No other person encounters the world quite the way we do. The most important aspect of our lives is the journey within, one which is often overlooked until a time of crisis and deep, personal pain, or when one is driven by personal circumstances to become introspective and evaluate their lives.

If you are experiencing distress that has impacted your life in some capacity, I will support you in processing and working through your areas of concern.
