My clients are looking to build self-resiliency, self-efficacy, self-compassion and overcome the life traumas that keep us stuck in old patterns and ways of being. As a Registered Nurse, Psychotherapist and Psychiatric Nurse in the province of Ontario, I have been providing psychiatric and mental health nursing care for over 30 years to individuals and groups. Using a holistic approach to your care ensures that your physical, emotional, spiritual and energetic needs are met. I believe that traditional psychotherapy and complimentary methods can be integrated successfully to provide the best care for your unique situation.
I specialize in women's health and have expert knowledge and experience in the major mental health diagnoses. On my own wellness journey and recovering from complex ptsd, I have embraced body-based therapies and found great healing and wisdom. As a life-long learner, this has led me to seek training in somatic therapy. I look forward to meeting you
Reaching out for help may feel distressing initially, but it's the first step in moving forward. I use a calming, empathic and trauma-informed approach to deeply hear what you are going through. Together we will devise a plan to move forward. Bonus, as a trusted RN, I am uniquely situated to help you navigate the healthcare system, if required!
