Life can be tough, even at the best of times, and we can all use a little help! I am passionate about supporting children (8 +), teens and their parents create better connections, increase communication, build coping skills and of course bringing back the fun to the family. Along with my work with families, I also support individuals on their journey of self discovery, whether it is by examining their values, relationship patterns or gaining perspective.

I am a Professor and Doctor of Human Services specializing in workforce retention, supervisory systems, and organizational accountability in child- and youth-serving contexts. My work focuses on stabilizing systems that experience chronic turnover, burnout, and supervisory strain. While I maintain a limited clinical and supervisory practice, my primary role is not traditional therapy. I work at the intersection of practice, teaching, applied research, and governance — supporting organizations, leaders, and practitioners to understand how system conditions shape individual experience. I work with practitioners seeking supervision.

When anxiety, overwhelm, or trauma begin to shape daily life, it can feel difficult to find your footing. Whether you're navigating the challenges of parenthood, processing a birth or NICU experience, or supporting a child through big emotions, you don't have to do it alone. My approach is practical and collaborative, focused on helping your family feel more regulated and grounded in daily life. Together, we’ll build tools to navigate anxiety and transitions one step at a time. Seeking support doesn't mean something is wrong-it can mean you're ready to make space for healing, growth, and connection.

You may look like you’re holding it together on the outside, yet inside feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. Anxiety, burnout, relationship strain, or major life transitions can leave you questioning who you are beneath the roles you carry. Therapy can be a place to gently set expectations down, feel truly seen, and begin reconnecting with what matters most to you.

Reduced Fees and Evening Availability- Currently a Registered Provisional Psychologist. The challenges life presents are REAL. The recent challenging times has created an opportunity for deep healing, connection and profound growth. The first step toward feeling better is simply reaching out for help. Humans are exceptionally strong and adaptive, but often we don’t recognize our own internal strengths and abilities when faced with life’s roadblocks.

If you're reading this, something probably isn't quite working. Maybe it's the same conflict playing out in relationships. Maybe it's the exhaustion of holding everything together. Maybe it's a feeling you can't quite name. Our patterns are often automatic — relationship patterns, addictive urges, overthinking, people-pleasing, shutting down — I help people identify their patterns and get intentional about change. I have a special interest in helping people work through emotionally charged events, life transitions, and attachment wounds. I help people confront their fears and live in more alignment with their values.

Do you struggle with feelings of unworthiness? Do you feel the pressures of societal expectations getting to you? Are you showing up the way you want to show up in all areas of your life? Perhaps you feel alone, you can’t seem to catch a break, or life just feels harder than it needs to be. Life is hard, but you don’t have to suffer. Together we can discover what's causing distress in your life, dig deeper while also working on skills and solutions, and create values-based goals to alleviate suffering. I am especially passionate about working with men’s mental health, as I have noticed a gap in our industry.
