Why Women's Mental Health? Frankly because we deserve it! Women experience unique mental and emotional health challenges and transitions along their lifespan that benefit from individualized and compassionate care and understanding. Whether you are dealing with a mood disorder, experiencing grief and loss, experiencing the menopause transition or perhaps dealing with not only your own aging, but that of your parents, counselling can help. As a therapist, I am here to hold space for you, provide you with education, coping tools and emotional support in order that you are able to move forward in reaching your goals.
My primary practice specialities are: Women's Mental Health, which may include dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, family of origin as well as difficult life transitions: Grief and Loss: Aging Concerns/Caregiving Challenges: Understanding and Navigating the Menopause Transition
