I provide my clients with a safe, welcoming and judge-free environment to discuss their most personal and intimate life struggles. Im honoured they trust me to help guide them. My focus is on helping people build healthy relationships, because when our connections are authentic we thrive. What’s more, our sense of love and belonging is fundamental to reaching our potential. In my 10 years of private practice, I’ve noticed people generally struggle with effective communication, lack of healthy boundaries, assertiveness and most of us question our intuition. I have experience in individual, couple, and family counselling.

As a social worker, I am deeply passionate about supporting families who face challenges with their children's behavior. I understand the profound impact that a constantly stimulated child can have on the entire family dynamic, often leading to feelings of overwhelm and strain on parental relationships. Through my work, I aim to provide compassionate guidance and practical solutions to help families navigate these challenges with resilience and strength. I can provide guidance on significant transition that occurs from pregnancy through postpartum, as parents navigate the joys and uncertainties of welcoming a new addition.

Life can be really challenging. Family dynamics and difficult personalities can make you feel like you’re reliving painful moments from the past. Being a parent, or trying to become one, can bring heartache and frustration. Infertility, loss, illness and anxiety can make life feel heavy, difficult, and rid you of vitality. This is where I come in to help. I can take you to better places. Healing doesn’t mean the pain never existed; it means the pain no longer controls our lives. I will create a space where you will feel safe and unconditionally supported to explore your thoughts, feelings, and worries, without judgement.

I have over 20 years of experience working as a Psychotherapist & Clinical Social Worker in a variety of settings such as: private practice, hospital -mental health unit, addiction services, family health team, community counselling agencies and child welfare.
Many times we find ourselves "stuck in a rut" not knowing how to address our challenges. It looks like we are separated from our goals and we are not sure how to move forward. Seeing a psychotherapist is like the process of crossing the bridge to freedom from "here" to "where you want/need to be". In my practice, I use a holistic treatment approach consisting of: psychotherapy , lifestyle management strategies (sleep, nutrition, physical exercise), building support and at client's request spiritual/ faith-based practice(s).

Are you tired of scrolling through the profiles on here and every one sounds the same? Well, one thing I can promise you is, that I am not your average therapist. The first difference is that I have been doing this a long time.

In this business, that’s important. That experience also makes me very confident and comfortable with whatever it is that you bring me. I have heard a lot of stories and value and respect them all.

Family Therapy Counsellors
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
