We all have moments of feeling stuck, misaligned, and overwhelmed. Facing these challenges in silence can make life's journey so much more difficult. In therapy, we face your pain together—this is a space where you don’t have to feel it alone.
I work with individuals as they navigate new seasons in their lives, such as transitioning into parenthood, coping with loss, and beginning and ending post-secondary school. I am particularly passionate about working with individuals postpartum, including helping clients navigate postpartum depression, anxiety and PTSD.
Perhaps you feel ready to dive in. Perhaps there's a part of you feeling curious and another feeling uncertain about moving forward with therapy. I welcome you to be in touch for a free brief phone chat no matter where you're at. I would be honoured to answer your questions and see if working together feels like a good fit.
