Now offering EMDR. Trauma can shake the way you interact with yourself, your loved ones and the world at large. I want to work with you to reconnect with yourself again. To feel safe enough to not just survive but to live. People living with trauma can carry a lot of shame and it can be difficult to talk about the things that you are facing. Therefore my goal as your therapist is to create a warm space for you to heal. In my work I embrace your natural gifts and incorporate creative forms of expression that come naturally to you into our therapeutic work.

To that end, I offer a range of approaches, support, and insights, and – most importantly – a space where you’ll feel fully seen, heard, and understood. I am available for both talk therapy and art therapy.

I offer therapy online across Ontario and in person in Guelph.
Many of the people I work with are used to managing a great deal on their own. On the outside, life may look stable or successful. Inside, stress accumulates, anxiety lingers, and food can become one of the few reliable ways to cope.
This often becomes more noticeable in midlife, as responsibilities expand and the body responds differently to stress. If you’ve had therapy before but never explored your relationship with food or your body, you’re not alone.
I integrate psychotherapy and nutrition support to help you understand your relationship with eating and build more sustainable ways of caring for yourself.

Midlife can feel like a storm—hormones shifting, emotions rising, identity changing. You’re not broken, and there is a way to stop the storming. You’re transforming. I help women navigate perimenopause, menopause, birth, divorce and major transitions by rewiring the unconscious patterns driving anxiety, helplessness and overwhelm. This is neuroscience-based coaching designed for measurable change—not endless processing. This chapter is powerful. This is a different kind of approach and may be the shift you are ready for. Free consults available.

No matter who we are, or how far we’ve traveled in this world, there are times when we all feel stuck. During these difficult stretches, we may feel disconnected from the world around us, and from ourselves. This can lead to a sense that we are undeserving of relief or that meaningful change is out of reach. And yet, somehow we find a way to persevere, and we take the brave step of seeking out care and understanding.

I offer in-person sessions on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with virtual daytime availability throughout the week.
If life is feeling hard lately and you are struggling, please know we all go through tough seasons and you don’t have to face this alone. Maybe you are noticing patterns of anger, anxiety, inner turmoil, or fight/flight/freeze. Maybe you know deep down that how you react to stressors in your life is not who you really are, nor who you want to be. We can explore these patterns together to support you to gain insight and compassionately understand your reactions so that change can happen. Maybe you have experienced childhood trauma or you are neurodivergent (ADHD, AuDHD, ASD) and feel misunderstood. I get it and I am here to support.

I work with children, teens, and adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not like themselves. Some are dealing with big feelings—like anxiety, sadness, anger, or worry.

You or your child might want to feel more in control, more connected, or more like yourself. My clients are looking for support that’s kind, honest, and meets them where they are.

Still today, there can be a great deal of negative stigma associated with mental health struggles and that can make it difficult for people to seek therapy or know where to start. I was inspired by a close friend years ago to seek therapy even though I was so reluctant. I chose counselling as a profession because I want to provide the same safe, non-judgmental relationship for my clients that helped me to break down that stigma in my own therapy experience. The clients I work with are ready to do explore and do the work to gain a better understanding of their struggles and move forward with better tools for managing them.
