I can help you with family relationships, parenting struggles, childhood trauma and C-PTSD, anxiety and depression, understanding your attachment style, behavioural and substance addictions, self-esteem/self-compassion, and more.
In my work I like to explore the emotional and relational patterns that shape your daily life - especially the pain points. I take a narrative approach to understanding your physical and emotional reactions to events - which means I want to get to know the stories you have been told about yourself, and how to change patterns that don't fit what you need.

I work with individuals and couples navigating life’s more challenging and overwhelming seasons—whether external stress, major life transitions, or feeling stuck or at a crossroads. As a mother myself, I understand how transformative and at times overwhelming the transition into parenthood can be, which has deepened my passion for supporting clients in the perinatal period with empathy and care. I also support couples who feel disconnected or stuck in patterns, helping them strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Now I have the joy of sharing that with people as they learn they don’t have to feel so angry, worried, afraid, sad, or guilty all of the time.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, anger, and grief, but I’m more interested in the person than a diagnosis. Humans are complex, and no two people experience the world in the same way. With that said, we all do best when we feel cared for, have a healthy balance of stability and adventure, and are able to work with our emotions, instead of fighting them.

Anxiety Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
