The world is full of lonely people…In life, we take many paths. Some paths are smooth, while some might be rough and challenging. Sometimes, on a particularly difficult path, we can lose sight of our goals, loved ones, and the connection to our inner selves. On the surface, it may feel like we do not have the strength to get through these hardships. But I believe that we can find it within ourselves to forge new pathways towards happiness. Therapy is empowering! By working through emotions, thoughts, and feelings, you can grow into the person you want to be, and achieve your full potential.

I have had the privilege of listening to clients’ stories in a therapeutic setting for over 10 years. I provide a space where you will experience my gentle facilitation and calm temperament. My goal is to meet you where you are at, as you explore a path that is right for you. My ambition is to help clients to engage with their resiliency, foster personal agency, and become aware of the natural supports within themselves and their lives. Establishing a safe, supportive relationship with clients is my priority. My skill set is well suited to both young people and adults who face anxiety.

It can be difficult trying to cope with distressing times on your own. Sometimes friends and family can only help so much. My role is to give you caring, non-judgmental support so that you can make sense of your emotions and gain a clearer picture of how your past plays a role in your current relationships. You will begin by telling me about yourself and the reasons why you've come to therapy and then we can explore together new ways of reflecting and interacting that will lead to a more fulfilling life.

I have a passion for supporting adults, teens and children to help individuals and families thrive. You're doing your best but perhaps you're also feeling emotionally trapped, confused, tired, overwhelmed or alone. Maybe feeling pressured as a young person? Have you noticed or learned about some concerning emotional or behavioral challenges in your child? If you are struggling with a specific issue or noticing patterns in your life that you are unhappy with, I can support you to get to the core of it all with the intention of moving toward healing, greater purpose, meaningful connections and a happier life.

I believe that clients are the experts in their life and aim to act as a guide in helping them develop a deeper understanding of themselves. I am passionate about working with clients from a holistic perspective that focuses on the interconnectedness of the whole being – the mind, body and soul. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, healing, integrative counselling approach by combining traditional talk therapy with alternative treatments, such as Breathwork, EFT Tapping/Thought Field Therapy, Mindfulness and Reiki Energy Healing modalities when appropriate.

If you recognize yourself as living any of these experiences, you are not alone, and you definitely don’t have to go through it alone. I welcome new clients who have never considered therapy before and those who are looking for the right therapist.

You WORRY. You can't stop thinking. You are in your head too much. Am I good enough? What do they think of me? What does this headache mean? What if this or that happens? You may describe yourself as an over thinker, people pleaser, perfectionist, hypochondriac, or very critical of yourself. You are SURE this overthinking is blocking you from things you want in your life - strong relationships, inner confidence, peace of mind - but you don't know how to stop it!
