Relationships are hard. When things aren't going well, there's nothing more difficult than trying to deal with another person, especially someone you love. It can leave you feeling overwhelmed, confused, heartbroken and alone. It can get you questioning everything you ever thought was real about your relationship and wonder how you'll ever get things right side up again. Don't give up. I know it's not easy, but it can get better.

Watching your child struggle can feel heartbreaking. Maybe they’ve become quieter, more withdrawn, or seem weighed down by worries you can’t quite reach. Growing up today comes with big challenges — from school stress and friendships to identity questions and family changes. Kids and teens often don’t have the words to express what they’re feeling, which can leave them frustrated, anxious, or shutting down. My role is to create a safe, supportive space where your child feels understood, cared for, and empowered to navigate life’s ups and downs.

Life is full of challenges. Sometimes our past and present life circumstances make it hard to manage them. Relationships, life transitions, trauma, fears, grief and loss, parenting worries, anxiety or low self esteem can all trigger feelings of distress and rob you of joy. When it feels hard to cope, it helps to talk. You don’t have to navigate these challenges by yourself. I can support you. You are not alone.

Choosing therapy is a courageous act that deserves respect, empathy, and patience. I’m inspired by those who seek support despite the stigma around mental health. I believe the growth that occurs, like increased hope and self-awareness, can create positive ripple effects in families and communities. My approach is collaborative and authentic, honouring each person’s unique story while considering the broader context of their relationships and roles. I'm now offering in-person sessions at the charming Wilson House, located in Whitby. This welcoming space provides a warm and comfortable setting for our work together.

Navigating through life can be challenging with the struggles we face such as, but not limited to, aversive life events, unwanted changes, uncertainties about the future, loss of a loved one, conflicts in relationships, and becoming your authentic self. Much of these life struggles throw an imbalance to our mental health wellness, causing difficult emotions and somatic symptoms to arise that seem to permeate through and taint every aspect of our lives. These challenging times may feel endless, and you may feel lost, but know that you are never alone.
