I provide therapeutic services to adolescents and adults to assist them in dealing with moderate to severe mental illness as well as expected day-to-day stressors and personal difficulties. I also have a special interest in working with expectant mothers and mothers during the postpartum period. I believe that providing support to mothers during this fulfilling, yet challenging period will ultimately facilitate a healthy parent-infant relationship which provides the foundation for psychological health during childhood and eventually adulthood.

For change to happen, an effort must be made. Counselling isn't so much about what the counsellor has to say. Rather, it's about being committed to doing the work yourself, with someone alongside you as a guide. Growth happens the moment you decide to get to know yourself - faults and all. The journey might not be easy, because growth can sometimes hurt. I'd love to be your guide through it all, and together we can uncover a better version of yourself - not for the sake of others, but for yourself.

You might be feeling tired, emotionally drained, overwhelmed, or like you’ve lost your sense of direction. Perhaps you're holding grief, burnout, anxiety, or the quiet weight of not feeling “enough.” Maybe life has felt heavy for a while, and you’re not sure where to start. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to feel ready to take one small step.

The people I work with are often holding so much anxiety, burnout, grief, relationship struggles, or the aftershocks of emotional trauma. Many are strong on the outside but tired of holding it all in. Some have walked away from emotionally harmful relationships and are trying to rebuild their sense of self. Others feel stuck, lost, or like they’ve quietly disappeared under the weight of life. What they long for most is space to breathe, to feel safe, and to begin coming home to themselves again.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, and it’s natural to long for understanding and connection. Many of us still live with the belief that seeking support is a sign of weakness. I see it very differently. Choosing to ask for help, especially during difficult, emotional and stressful moments, is an act of strength and courage. Reaching out is the first brave step toward healing, personal growth, and reconnecting with yourself.

I work with couples, individual adults, families and teens – navigating anxiety, stress, transitions, identity, low mood, life challenges, mental health conditions, and/or emotional exhaustion. With couples, I focus on communication, emotional safety, power dynamics, intimacy, and conflict patterns – helping partners move from reactivity to reconnection. In family and teen work, I create space for each voice to be heard, supporting healthier boundaries, emotional regulation, communication skills, and trust during often challenging developmental stages. With individuals, I assess their unique history and potential for transformation.

My therapeutic approach is shaped by Jungian thinking, Process Oriented Psychology, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and embodied practices that are trauma informed.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
