Let's Connect (647) 697-8392
I specialize in supporting people who are experiencing, stress, anxiety, or burnout. Finding a balance between the demands of work, home, and personal care can feel impossible some days. You may be having trouble sleeping, relying on self-destructive behaviours to cope, or just not know how to move forward. Whether you are overwhelmed with work, experiencing tension or conflict in your relationships, want support with your ongoing sobriety, or feel lonely and disconnected, I'm here to help.
As the best-selling author of Drink, I have my own lived experience with many of the issues you may be facing. When we connect for our first session, you will be met with compassion and understanding. Together we'll set clear goals for your journey, with a focus on developing insight and self-understanding, and creating lasting change.
We all need to answer the question posed by poet Mary Oliver: "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" I help people like you, live large. We live many-chaptered lives, and it is possible to make the most of the adventure. Please visit my website or reach out to learn more about how we can work together.
