Are you feeling stuck, weighed down, or simply tired of trying things that don’t seem to work? You don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we’ll explore what really matters to you, uncover your strengths, and find practical ways to move forward. I specialize in supporting individuals through life transitions, grief, and everyday stress. As PEI’s Pet Loss and Grief Specialist, I offer a safe space for those who are losing a pet, have recently said goodbye, or are navigating the unique pain of this kind of loss. Your bond with your animal matters, and your grief deserves care and understanding.
With over a decade of experience in mental health, addictions, grief, and life transitions, I bring compassion, honesty, and a down-to-earth approach. Sessions are comfortable and supportive — a place where you can laugh, cry, reflect, and begin to feel lighter.
Options include traditional sessions, sliding scale pricing, and “walk-and-talk” therapy for those who feel more at ease outdoors. Whether you want to talk through tough decisions, heal from past experiences, or simply find clarity in daily life, this is a space without judgment where you can begin to take back control of your story.

We are taught many treatment types, but what works depends on who the client is and what they connect with most. Treatments can be combined and adjusted based on your needs and comfort. In the end, we want to see progress no matter how small, you will be accepted for who you are, supported and learn how to improve thoughts, and behaviours and manage feelings.
