You’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and feel like you never quite get it good enough. You’re just.so.tired of beating yourself up. You try so hard. And so far, you’ve faked it pretty well. No one has realized you’re not quite what they think you are. You woke up today: (healthy?) lunch for your kids, enough make-up to cover the flaws, dressed in a (stylish??) outfit that hides that problem area. At work, you managed to get through the day without anyone pointing out how little you know or how many times you felt inadequate (should work more this weekend!). You come home, ugh. The mess…you just cleaned…why does it already look so bad??

We all need a safe space, and a person to hear, and understand us. I believe that we can tackle problems more effectively when we can discuss them openly and honestly. It’s my role to facilitate that conversation and create the pathway towards your preferred ways of living.

You don’t need to fit into someone else’s mold to find clarity, connection, or healing. Maybe you’re questioning your gender, your place in the world, or the rules you were taught to follow. Maybe you’re managing anxiety or ADHD, feeling chronically overwhelmed, or struggling with the pressure to be someone you're not. If you’ve felt out of sync with the world around you, this space is for you. You get to show up as your full self; queer, neurodivergent, spiritual, unconventional, or still figuring it all out.

Namaste! I provide individual, relationship and marriage counselling, in a nonjudgmental, relaxed environment. Over the last 35 years I have worked with individuals and couples guiding, teaching and helping them by using an eclectic approach, and a variety of different types of modalities depending on the particular needs of my clients. I also provide family mediation and relationship counselling for couples who have split. I am a sex therapist, working with all couples and individuals. I specialize in many areas, as I believe all issues are connected, so to treat problems in isolation is unrealistic and can be short lived.

The difficult emotions you might be feeling, such as anxiety, sadness, resentment, guilt, or overwhelm to name a few, are guides that are here to tell you something about your experiences or your beliefs. When ignored, they get louder, when avoided, more painful. I will seek to understand your experience, and go at your pace, as you tell the stories of what is happening for you, and what has happened. When we face together, what is painful and confusing alone, new realizations and understanding can emerge.

I collaborate with clients to identify the roadblocks that prevent them from living their best life; one with intention, meaning and happiness. Paying attention to the things that impact our well-being - mood instability, sleep disturbances, anxiety/stress, interpersonal concerns, life transitions - is imperative to help us move beyond them.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Are you someone who is caring so much for those around you….while finding that it has become hard to care for yourself? We can often push down our own needs…..until we can’t anymore. I have experienced the pressure to spread myself thin, and have experienced the burnout and exhaustion that results. I have a special passion in supporting women through relationship challenges and life transitions, as well as working with issues of self-acceptance, self-compassion, and burnout.

Accepting NEW clients: 2 spots available. I am sensing that something must be really weighing heavily on you. Life transitions often bring both possibility and pain. Whether you’re becoming a parent, adjusting to an empty nest, caring for aging parents, coping with a new diagnosis, or grieving a loss, these moments can shake your sense of identity and meaning. You may find yourself asking, “Who am I now?” or “How do I move forward from here?” I work with adults navigating these tender and transformative seasons of life. I believe that even in times of deep struggle, there is an inner capacity for healing and growth.
