My specialty is helping individuals and families move through relational challenges, inner & outer conflict, stress/burn-out, issues of self worth, emotional regulation; clearing traumas, recovering from grief/loss, reconnecting with authenticity and moving forward with lightness, renewed energy, and enjoyment. I am a registered psychologist and registered play therapist and have been supporting people to create positive change in their lives for over 30 years. My approach is warm, direct, honest and personal. I collaborate with clients, helping clarify blocks, uncover resources, learn skills and create long term change.
I focus on the whole person and the uniqueness of each individual using a variety of evidence-based interventions including EMDR, ACT, CBT, and Family Constellation; interventions are tailored to each client. Play Therapy, Sandtray, and Expressive Arts help children and adolescents with self-esteem, social connectedness & emotional well-being.
I work with adult clients in person and online. Sessions are one hour in length and or longer for EMDR/trauma-work. I work with children, adolescents, and families in-person as my approach is ’hands-on’ and interactive. If you are ready for change and would like to book for yourself or your family, please email me. I look forward to working with you.

I work with individuals, parents, and families who are facing blocks which seem impossible to move through without support and which impact their quality of life. For an individual, that might look like a repeated negative pattern, relational issue or unresolved trauma. For a family, that might look like family conflict or child who struggles with emotions, reactivity, anxiety, or loss.
