Life can be challenging at times. Are you facing difficulties in your romantic, family, or parenting relationships? Do you feel misunderstood or unheard by your friends and family? Are you struggling with work-related issues, self-esteem, or confidence? I'm here to help you navigate these challenges.

My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. Taking the first step can be tough, but I assure you that seeking help is worth it. I specialize in couples counselling, parenting, infidelity, loss, anxiety, self-esteem, and perfectionism.

It would be my privilege to support you on your journey. I invite you to a free consultation to learn more. Feel free to reach out via email or phone.

I work with couples who want to restore their relationship to what it once was. During our initial sessions, we explore your strengths as a couple, and what's "not working". Using the EFT model, we work toward having a greater understanding of the dynamic that plays out when things aren't going well, and what part we may be bringing into the dynamic. It is a non-blaming & non-shaming approach.
