Welcome. I am a registered social worker with over 20 years of experience. I completed my MSW degree specializing in clinical social work from U of C. I have worked in multiple health care settings with clients across the lifespan, including emergency care, primary and acute health care, life transitions, and most recently in community mental health and addictions. I am passionate about what I do and find great honor in being able to meet people where they are and helping them work through life’s challenges. I value a compassionate approach to therapy, where individuals feel heard and validated throughout their therapeutic journey.

A lot of people come to therapy feeling stuck. Maybe in their relationships, in their own heads, or just in life in general. There’s this longing for more connection, more peace, and to just feel okay again. Things like anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, or anger can get in the way and make it hard to break those patterns, even when you really want to. Therapy can be a place to slow down, get real about what’s going on, and start untangling it all. It’s not about fixing everything overnight or being perfect, it’s about feeling more like yourself, more in control, and more connected to the people and life that matter to you.

Asking for help is not easy to do. I have great respect for the courage it takes to reach out and complete empathy for how vulnerable this can make us feel. I approach my practice with a genuine appreciation for the complexities that we experience as we journey through life. There can be a measure of comfort knowing you are not alone as you move through some of the 'sticky' stuff. That’s where counselling can help. Through collaboration and reflection, we will develop strategies specific to your needs- balancing acceptance/understanding for who we are with the need for creating change that moves you forward.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults following a neurodiversity affirming, strength based, and trauma-informed approach. While this approach is particularly supportive of neurodivergent clients, it is also valuable for clients of all neurotypes. I recognize the unique challenges that come with living in a world that does not always accommodate a neurodiverse brain and strive to create a space where clients feel understood and supported!

My approach to therapy is rooted in collaboration, empathy, and nonjudgmental acceptance. With these elements in place, clients are encouraged to feel safe, open, and explorative.

I work with people who’ve been carrying too much for too long. Many of my clients come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or simply worn out from trying to keep everything together. They may be professionals, parents, students, or caregivers who have spent years focusing on everyone else and are now realizing they deserve peace, clarity, and direction, too.
My clients often describe feeling stuck in cycles of self-doubt, burnout, or perfectionism. They want to stop just coping and start feeling grounded again—to understand themselves more deeply, manage their emotions, and create a life that feels calm and authentic.
