I am a registered social worker with over 15 years of work experience. I have helped people who experience issues such as: depression, anxiety, addiction, abuse, trauma, anger, LGBTQ-related issues, relationship issues, grief, and family conflict. My journey into social work began at age 14, when I lost my father to cancer. Because there were few supports available at the time, I felt alone and stuck. This prompted me to dedicate my life to assisting others during difficult times, and help them realize they are not alone.

With rich life-experience, extensive therapeutic practice and wide-ranging skills, I’ve helped individuals struggling with anxiety, panic, depression, grief, trauma and relationship issues to develop tools and discover their path.
Mid-life can leave us feeling lost and uncertain. Complicated relationships with aging parents, shifting dynamics with grown children, changing bodies, unruly hormones, unexpected health problems and disruptive life-events create insecurity and confusion. But middle age can also be a time of reinvention, freedom and self-acceptance. I help women navigate the uncertain waters of mid-life. Adolescence is a tough time for girls, dealing with changing bodies, complicated social expectations and mounting school pressures. Mental health issues bloom and and lots of teen girls are overwhelmed with anxiety and depression they can't manage.

For almost 10 years I have been providing counselling and therapy services to individuals and families. During my career I have supported adults, children, youth and families to manage experiences of anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, relationship issues, stress, trauma, grief and loss, parenting challenges and more. I am known for my empathetic approach, my ability to build strong relationships with my clients, and my commitment to ensuring that everyone I work with feels heard, valued, and supported. I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach and tailor my practice to fit each client’s needs and best interests.

Navigating the struggles of the human experience is not easy. Traumatic events, times of stress, life transitions, grief, loss, and change can be unsettling and feel overwhelming at times. With support, these situations can offer opportunities for growth and transformation. We can work together to re-establish strengths and face challenges through compassionate, client-centred, non-judgemental, collaborative goal-setting, skill development, and meaning-making.

Whether a child is dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, family separation or divorce, or difficulty regulating emotions, Play Therapy helps children learn new tools and develop resilience they can easily transfer into their day to day lives.
Childhood is often thought of as a magical time. The reality is that many kids face problems that leave them feeling worried, scared, angry, sad or confused. This can be difficult and heart breaking for parents trying their best to connect with and support their child. Very often, despite a caregiver’s best effort to learn more and help solve the problem, a child’s response is “I don’t know”. Play therapy can help provide children with the tools they need to express their thoughts and explore their inner world.

I am committed to creating a welcoming space where individuals, couples and families can begin to process their personal lived experiences, grief, and family histories.
I am aware of how social and structural systems affect our mood, capacity, self-esteem, and emotional and physical well-being. My approach is one of deep engagement and inclusion; I acknowledge differences in order to understand the complex challenges of navigating a world that can often be dehumanizing. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, workplace stress, intrusive thoughts, and grief. If you are a couple challenged with poor communication, lack of trust and co-dependency, I provide strategies to improve relational breakdown and increase relationship satisfaction.

We all need support at different times in our lives and I understand that reaching out for this help can be difficult. My therapeutic approach is to connect with you, where you are at, as the first step in our work. From there, we will strive to recognize where change is needed and how to create this change for a more manageable place in life. Understanding your story, respectfully and safely, then creating goals for success and how to get there, will be the direction of our work together. With my primary focus on anxiety, depression, family issues and grief, the ultimate outcome of our work should feel progressive and empowering.

Mental health is nested within a network of relationships and our past experience. In therapy, we work together to untangle these networks to build awareness and form new and useful habits or patterns that serve you and your loved ones. I work with youth and adults managing low mood/self-esteem, depression/suicide, anxiety, ADHD, eating and body image concerns, relationship difficulties (family, romantic etc.), grief, and day to day stressors.

Waitlist for new clients
Areas I am passionate about include: childhood trauma; emotional dysregulation, adult children of alcoholics (ACoA) and adult children of emotionally immature parents; relationship issues (attachment, co-dependency, communication), pregnancy/postpartum and the transition to parenthood, grief and Indigenous healing and reconciliation.
Wait List for New Clients. I feel incredibly grateful to be able to sit with clients and support them in some of the hardest times of their lives. I bring a compassionate, calm and accepting energy to every session, ensuring that you feel safe and heard. I always welcome the difficult conversations, as I know this is where healing begins. My style of therapy is informal and client-centered, responsive to each person’s unique needs. Our problems of today are often rooted in our hurt from yesterday. Being able to explore our past from a trauma-informed, attachment-focused lens helps us find meaning, connection and hope for the future.
