As a Registered Psychotherapist and Canadian Certified Counsellor, I offer services for individuals and couples experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, grief, and more.
People come to therapy hoping to improve their life stories in a meaningful way. Perhaps that's you. Perhaps you're longing for positive change, but painful emotions and relationship challenges have left you feeling stuck. If anxiety, depression, trauma, or unhealthy relationship patterns have held you back from building the life you desire, therapy can be a transformative turning point. In a safe and supportive environment you can heal old wounds, overcome your fears, develop new coping skills, discover inner strength and resilience, build new patterns of relating, and move forward with greater confidence and peace.

As a highly trained and experienced therapist, I support adults and couples as they work through their most difficult problems.
Many of my clients have experienced trauma, such as betrayal, abuse, loss or abandonment. Such painful experiences often have a long-lasting impact, including anxiety, depression, PTSD and relationship problems. Despite those wounds, I have seen many clients become stronger and happier. With courage and compassion, I believe change is always possible.

Through my work I believe that compassion and empathy are two of the most important qualities when seeking support. From time to time life can feel overwhelming and heavy, due to many of the experiences that we are faced with from Life Transitions, Substance Use (or Abuse), Gambling/Gaming Concerns, Trauma Events, or Mental Health Concerns; I am here to support you through it. I provide both individual and family therapy.

If anything here sounds familiar, I would love to support you in identifying your goals and building a life that is fulfilling, balanced and worth living.
