I prioritize safety and trust above all other factors in building relationships. My clients are people looking for help with problems not limited to physical or sexual abuse, childhood abuse, parents seeking guidance with child/youth sexuality, ADHD, or traumatic loss. I have an extensive background in trauma/PTSD, suicidality/depression, and death & dying. I'm skilled at helping clients begin the difficult work of acknowledging pain and hurt. I work extensively with kids, youth, and adults around ADHD, and have worked with addictions and mental health issues. Currently accepting new clients.

I provide psychological, psycho-educational and neuropsychological assessments for children, youth and adults. An assessment can be useful in order to understand the nature of an individual's learning needs, certain behaviours, and/or emotional challenges. It can provide specific diagnoses (e.g. ADHD, Specific Learning Disabilities, Anxiety), or simply help to identify a person's strengths and any weaknesses. Ultimately, the goal of an assessment is to make recommendations that will promote wellbeing and help an individual to be successful. In addition to assessments, I also offer some individual therapy and parenting support.

Do you live with sensory sensitivity, a mood disorder, or a developmental or physical disability? Have your diverse needs caused significant changes or loss related to your health, spirituality, work, status, hobbies, or social life? In the most challenging of times, it’s easy to lose touch with your sense of self, safety, and hope; it can be hard to see where you have choice. But what if you could lighten the burden you carry — a little at a time — creating more space in your life for the things that nourish you? What if you gained more clarity around the choices you can make to start building a new life experience?

I like how you help me to see myself as powerful and capable... & "I didn't know counselling could be like this...." Are words spoken by my clients. My genuine, caring and compassionate approach, along with my lighthearted sense of humor, are instrumental in establishing an empowering and safe relationship with my clients. I work with clients who face challenges which impede their ability to live full and meaningful lives.

My ideal client is someone who is self-aware, open to growth, and ready to explore their inner world. They may be navigating life transitions, anxiety, grief, or relationship challenges, and are seeking a grounded, compassionate space to feel seen and heard. They value emotional depth and are curious about how past experiences shape present patterns. Rooted in the Victoria community, they may also be drawn to nature, mindfulness, and integrative approaches to healing. They're not looking for quick fixes—they want lasting change.

I work with adults who feel frustration or even hopelessness, who are tired of experiencing their lives as one challenge after another. Physical and emotional pain, attention deficits, depression and/or anxiety do not define an individual. They are symptoms. My life experience, research and training, provides a safe, non-judgemental space to discuss strategies, remove obstacles and move forward with renewed energy and hope. The decision to find a counsellor is an example of readiness and courage. Please contact me for a free consultation.
