I am passionate about working with children and their families. In accessing over 30 years of experience in therapeutic, school-based, and athletic settings, I seek to create a safe, non-judgmental, and non-intrusive experience for children. I provide counselling and play therapy to help children develop self-awareness, emotional language, and the regulation skills needed to reduce and manage symptoms related to anxiety, stress, worry, school avoidance, peer relationships, grief and loss, life changes, and learning difficulties.

At times we feel under a lot of intangible stress, and this creates an imbalance that wears out our normal coping skills. You are not alone. Feeling tired of being tired is the first step in reaching out to achieve and master a proper life balance. A life without the limits of our pre-conditioned and other based negative self talk paradigms. Life does involve more than survival and fighting- it involves joy and happiness. I can help you achieve this transformation.

Quite often, we manage our biggest challenges with strength and confidence. And yet, there are times when we need an outside perspective that provides clarity, hope, and courage. Each individual has unique strengths and qualities, and my job is to help you connect with the inner strength that makes you resilient and prompts fruitful actions. I have thirteen years of experience helping individuals with depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, marital conflicts, workplace conflicts, and other issues. I have two Master's degrees, one in Social Work and the other in Special Education/Education Psychology.

While I enjoy working with individuals, I specialize in helping couples reconnect. I don't take sides, I don't judge, and I don't tell you what to do. In our sessions, we'll collaborate to uncover and change patterns of communication that leave you feeling disconnected. If your relationship has become a source of stress, I can most likely help you and your partner find your way back to a mutually satisfying connection. You will strengthen your intimate bond, and learn how to be there for each other more deeply during the inevitable difficulties all couples experience.

The unfortunate truth is that life will always present tough times and challenges. Trauma and stress do not discriminate and can be immensely impactful. It may be easier at times to repress difficult feelings and emotions, rather than face them head-on. However, what is repressed can slowly seep out into multiple areas of one's life, impacting self-esteem, relationships, ability to cope, etc. Together, we can work on your goals to enhance what you already have within you to cope, regulate, and enhance your quality of life.

It can be hard to enjoy life, especially when our innermost thoughts and automatic reactions are difficult or painful. It can feel like we are "stuck" on autopilot causing many areas of our life to feel unsatisfying, stressful, or overwhelming. I help people get "unstuck" from the symptoms of stress that they have been trying to manage (panic, anxiety, relationship issues, reactivity, body pain). By reducing chronically held tension in our nervous system, we are better able to manage our responsibilities, our relationships, and recover easier. Therapy can help restore an inner calm and can help you come back to yourself.

I have specialized training in Couples Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Trauma Informed Therapy, Stress Management, and Mindfulness Based Therapy.
Many people struggle with confidence and are unable to fulfill their goals for relationships, work, and personal fulfillment. Understanding how your core values and beliefs impact aspects of your life such as work, relationships, and overall fulfillment can give you the power to overcome these struggles. Through learning to accept and love yourself fully you can move past shame that is likely impacting how you feel and behave. Through awareness of your power to change the meaning you give to events within your childhood, you can become free from limiting beliefs.

I work with anxiety, addiction (substance use) and chronic pain. Sometimes the little things become too much and you find you're overreacting or panicking. Maybe you can't get a situation out of your head and you're overthinking or stressed about it. Maybe you tired of numbing the pain or avoiding your problems cause it isn't helping. Sometimes our motivation is to stop passing on unhealthy patterns to our kids. Maybe you want to control your emotions so they don't control you. If you want to work on the roots of addiction and the stress and anxiety that is always brewing below the surface of chronic pain, we could be a fit.

This includes managing workplace and career burnout; adjusting to parenting and caregiver stress; and working through challenging family dynamics especially where cultural factors are involved.
Challenges with work-life balance, navigating change, burnout, and stress can dramatically affect your ability to thrive. These stressors often compound on another and can feel incredibly overwhelming. Transitions may also involve a sense of loss or grief, as it becomes necessary to rediscover your identity and align with new goals. I work with clients to regain balance, build confidence, and move forward with purpose. Through developing clarity around personal values and establishing boundaries that best support you, our work together can help to better cope with unavoidable stress and alleviate anxiety.
