As a therapist and Clinical Director with Counselling Associates I help individuals, couples, and families through life’s toughest and transformative moments. I bring 30 years of clinical expertise and a unique, and creative approach to help you get to better places. I’m a believer in evidence-based therapy, but more importantly, I believe in you. I believe in your strengths, your story, and your unique way of making sense of the world. My approach is always tailored to the individual and rooted in a strength-based, client-centered philosophy.
I draw from a wide toolbox: CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy), Reunification therapy and more. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship conflict, family dynamics, court-mandated referrals, or any other hurdles in life, we’ll work together to build a space that feels safe, productive, and creative.
Therapy with me is collaborative, combining decades of my clinical experience with a lifetime of your lived experience. Contact me via phone, email, or through the Counselling Associates website to book a session. Experience - the difference.
