I provide supportive counselling for youth and families in and around the Ottawa area. Those who struggle with emotion regulation, anger management, attachment issues or just general social problems, need someone to talk to and trust.

Navigating relationships in today’s face paced and demanding world can be very challenging. Today’s couples face increased financial and mental health concerns as they try raising families and or strengthening their own relationships and following their individual dreams. I have worked with couples of all age ranges, and diverse backgrounds to help them reconnect and rebuild their relationships after facing life’s daily stressors, addiction, infidelity and frequent absences of a spouse due to deployments. I am also very passionate about helping adults who struggle with trauma either from military service or family or chronic trauma.
