A registered counsellor since 1994, I have worked with a wide array of clients. I have done much work with marriages and relationships and have developed a system that generally makes a significant difference within 6 sessions. For six years, I worked as an elementary school counsellor, working with over 450 children for a wide variety of needs. For 20 years, I worked extensively with Level 3 foster children, mostly teens. I also served as a prison chaplain so am familiar with criminal justice issues and addictions. Because of the diversity of my experience, I can generally relate to most clients.

My clients have said "counselling with you feels different". Likely, because it is often matter of fact, to the point, humour infused and honest. I am your biggest cheerleader, but I will hold you accountable, like a needed conversation with an insightful friend.

My passion for counselling comes from the life change that understanding has brought me. Many of us find ourselves going through our lives accepting what is our norm, without ever having an understanding as to why. I seek to bring understanding to my clients' lives so that with this knowledge, they can make the desired changes in their lives. Everybody's life is unique and how we come to see and interact with the world is based on our personality, trauma background, culture, upbringing, attachments, and lived experience. My goal is to deeply understand a client's situation to most effectively help create the change that is sought.

I enjoy working with adults who want to make a change in their life. The change might be to lessen stress or anxiety, build self awareness or develop new tools in relationships. Therapy offers a rare opportunity to have life changing conversations and being a part of that is very exciting.

I will journey alongside you through the highs and lows as you work through challenges and take steps toward change. You can expect genuineness, compassion, empathy, and laughter throughout this process. My approach to counselling does not involve telling you what to do but is rather about partnering with you to discover and bring about the growth and new direction you long for.

I've been in practice for clinical counselling since 2010. Over the course of time, I have adopted a practical and evidence-based approach to clinical counselling. Some of my areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, inter-personal relationships, family of origin challenges, career/work and trauma. I have years of additional training under my belt but I've found that it comes down to the relationship between the counsellor and the client. In this case, it's what you know AND who you want in your corner. I enjoy working with a variety of clients, and most especially those who are ready to do the work to get the life the want!
