Counsellor, LCT
Grand Falls, NB E3Z
I prioritize establishing a trust-based therapeutic relationship, creating a safe space for clients to cultivate mindfulness, self-compassion, and enhance their connection to their bodies
I guide my clients to step out of the automatic mode in which many of us operate daily, helping them develop a deeper understanding of themselves and make informed decisions for their well-being. My main goals are to collaborate with my clients to help them achieve emotional balance, improve interpersonal relationships, and develop adaptive strategies to face life's challenges.

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP

I draw from CBT, IFS, DBT, ACT, CPT, Gottman Method, and mindfulness-based approaches, selecting what fits you rather than following a single model.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it makes sense to feel uncertain about it. I work with adults navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and major life transitions, including the moments where you feel stuck and are not quite sure what comes next. My clients often arrive knowing something needs to change but unsure where to begin. That uncertainty is not a problem to fix before we start. It is exactly where we begin, together, at a pace that feels right for you.

When anxiety, relationship stress, attention challenges, or the general “my brain is doing a lot right now” feeling starts piling up, life can get complicated fast. If your brain tends to run in a lot of directions at once, you’re not alone. I work with teens, adults, and parents who are thoughtful, capable, and often carrying more internally than people around them realize. Many are used to being the thoughtful one for others but rarely get space to sort through their own experiences. Together, we slow things down and build changes that feel doable — not like another item on your already crowded list.

You may be feel stuck in patterns that keep repeating despite your best efforts to change. Perhaps anxiety, self-doubt, relationship difficulties, perfectionism, or overwhelming emotions continue showing up. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, reflect, and better understand yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we can explore not only the challenges bringing you to therapy, but also the deeper emotional and relational patterns that may be influencing your experiences. I believe meaningful change often begins with understanding rather than fixing.

My practice supports late-identified autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD adults, whether self-identified or formally diagnosed. You might feel overstimulated or overwhelmed, or find that what you’re able to do doesn’t match what you want to do, or what others expect of you. Many of the people I see feel chronically misunderstood, self-critical, or burned out from years of adapting to meet expectations that don’t fit who they are.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counsellors
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.

When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.

Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
