Hi! Struggling with anxiety, burnout, or perfectionism? I've been there and know you don't have to go through it alone. I can guide you through the storm so you can be healthier, mentally stronger, and thrive! I enjoy working with adults in roles that require 100% performance, like medicine, aviation, law, education, athletes, and business/ entrepreneurs. I also love supporting post-secondary students and folks new to counselling. I offer a reduced '1st session fee' for any new client that is $20 off the hourly price so we can focus on connection first. I also provide post-secondary students a student rate of $110/session.

- Will open waitlist March 2025 - I believe one of the most courageous things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I remember what it feels like to be on your side of the couch, overwhelmed by the idea of sharing my most vulnerable stories. When we've hit (or passed) the point of burnout, or we have a stressful experience like a loss or traumatic event, it can be hard to imagine finding joy or fulfillment again. You deserve a space to discover your strengths, make sense of your experiences, and find a meaningful path forward.

By incorporating the mind body connection my clients welcome parts of themselves and their lives that at one time may have been excruciating into an integral, whole and beautiful self. EMDR helps process through the most painful experience so that we can see ourselves in a new and resilient light. It’s such an honour!
