In-person appointments available! 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?

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!

You didn’t become who you are because life was easy. You became who you are by learning to carry pain no one else could see. You move through life with invisible wounds, smiling on the outside while fighting battles no one notices. You’ve gotten used to staying busy, achieving, and showing up for others, because slowing down means facing what’s underneath. Past traumas may still linger in your present life, leaving you exhausted from coping alone. Seeking support is not about “fixing” YOU, it’s about healing, growing and finding balance. I offer a compassionate space to explore your story and support your journey towards wholeness.

The pressures of life can leave us feeling defeated, misunderstood, and hopeless. Even when we’re doing our best, there are times we feel overwhelmed or out of control. We want things to change but may not know where to start—leaving us frustrated and stuck.
As a therapist trained in evidence-based approaches, my style is client-centered and flexible—because one size does not fit all. I’m dedicated to creating a safe, nonjudgmental space for adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship challenges.

At times, we can find ourselves dealing with thoughts, feelings and life events that leave us experiencing profound emotions like loss, confusion or sadness. Whether the cause is based on childhood events, relationships, work or some unexpected occurrence, the effects are often fairly similar. It may be useful to consider that the goal of therapy is to bring about some kind of change - for example, going from where you are now (distress) to where you want to be (calm and centred). It's a life-changing journey I have had the privilege to accompany many clients on.

Anxiety, Panic, Obsessive Thoughts... these experiences can make you feel helpless and alone. Having provided counselling and therapy for over 12 years, I have seen how common the experience of having “anxiety about the anxiety” is. I am passionate about helping people to understand how anxiety/mood issues operate, the grip they form on you, and how to begin to heal. I am also dedicated to helping those who suspect they are struggling with a narcissist in their life. I strive to help clients understand how this negative pattern of behaviour is impacting them and how to start protecting themselves.
