My goal is to help clients challenge limiting beliefs, process stuck beliefs and build a healthy relationship with themselves. I use a variety of approaches including EMDR (which I have used for over 25 years in my practice), brainspotting, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and parts work (similar to IFS) as well as sandtray art therapy to help you break through emotional barriers and create the life that you deserve. I work with adults 18+ providing individual therapy. I am semi-retired but do take a few new clients each year, otherwise I do have a wait list. Check in to see my availability.

Many of our clients come to us feeling overwhelmed and confused about what to do next. Life is feeling heavy. They are tired of simply trying to get through day to day. Some are a little hesitant about taking that first step in talking to a therapist. Others tell us they are taking care of everyone around them, and feeling completely drained. Parents are worried about their child or teen. They want to help them overcome their struggles to have more peace at home, and a happier, more resilient kid.

Asking for help is the bravest step you can take and I want to help you make the most of this courageous step forward. I specialize in adult ADHD and postpartum mood disorders. As a fellow parent (of 3) I know how this time can bring great joy and simultaneously be the cause of overwhelm. If you have ADHD know that it does not define you, but it does impact your brain processes. To be the person deep in your heart, the work starts from the inside out. Together, we'll make sense of your pain, learn transformative skills, improve functioning and self-regulation.

As a Registered Social Worker and therapist, I specialize in helping people work through trauma, depression, anxiety, and addictions. I employ an informed, yet relaxed approach to help the therapy process feel accessible. This approach helps many individuals who are new to, unsure or uncomfortable with the idea of counseling. I use a combination of therapeutic techniques, knowledge of neurobiology, physical health, and our nervous system to help people identify and challenge behaviours, reactions, and patterns they want to change or improve.
