My life experience is my greatest asset in counselling you through life transitions following major injury or illness, divorce/separation, career change, navigating school, relationships, retirement etc.
Do you have symptoms of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and/or difficulty managing your emotions? Are you struggling day to day with general life issues and lack of motivation, drive, and ambition? If so, we can work together to identify the issues that are bothering you, set goals and make a plan to achieve them. I am an eclectic therapist, meaning I use tools from many different therapies and theories. I like to take the approach of looking forward to make changes in life, although at some point in therapy, when you are ready, it is often useful to work through past issues at your pace. I look forward to meeting you!

Whether you're navigating infidelity, working through the pain of divorce, or hoping to strengthen your relationship before marriage, therapy with me is a collaborative, supportive space.
Many couples begin therapy when communication starts breaking down and the distance between them feels impossible to ignore. You may find yourselves stuck in the same arguments, walking on eggshells, or feeling more like roommates than partners. Some couples are navigating separation, family conflict, or the impact of betrayal and unresolved hurt. What many people want most is calmer communication, renewed trust, and a way to reconnect emotionally and feel close again. Change is possible, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

Life can feel especially heavy when you’re carrying grief, moving through divorce, caring for others, living with chronic pain or illness, or trying to manage the pressures of work, parenting, and relationships.
Having experienced challenges such as separation and single parenting, I understand what it feels like to face uncertainty with no clear path forward. I also know the pressures of the professional world, having worked in business before becoming a therapist. These experiences inform the compassion and perspective I bring to my work.

You might be noticing patterns in your emotions or relationships that feel hard to manage. Anger, anxiety, shame, addiction, or withdrawal may be affecting how you connect with others and how you see yourself. You may feel stuck pushing through while carrying stress, trauma, or unresolved emotions beneath the surface, wondering why the same patterns keep repeating. Many people come to therapy wanting more than just coping. They want to feel grounded, connected, and at peace within themselves and their relationships. You don't have to navigate this alone.

Together, we focus on healing, meaning, and finding purpose. We often talk about trauma as something that affects the mind, but it also lives in the body — in tension, pain, and stress responses that present themselves long after the traumatic event has passed.

Divorce Counsellors
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
