I believe that individual experiences are what make us unique, thus "the relationship we have with ourselves sets the tone for every other relationship we have" (Jane Travis). I appreciate having the opportunity to support and work collaboratively with my clients, many of whom may be experiencing a diverse and/or complex array of concerns for their mental health needs and well-being. I strive to offer a safe and supportive environment where my clients can feel safe and secure in exploring their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. I strive to ensure that my client's needs and preferences are met and will adapt my approach when needed.

Life can be challenging at times and for most people, the last few years have been even more challenging. It takes courage to reflect on one’s life and seek professional assistance with difficult situations. I would like to applaud you for considering therapy as a step towards improving your wellness. I am passionate about offering support to individuals going through difficult times. It is an honour for me to be part of someone’s healing journey. I have experience working with individuals of diverse cultures, religions, genders and sexual orientations. I'm particularly interested in trauma, addiction and relationship challenges.

Do you struggle to wind down at night, chronically "tired yet wired" and stuck doom-scrolling online until you fall into a restless sleep? Do you feel lost, overwhelmed, and drained from the effort of just getting through each day? With so much turmoil within and around you, better days can seem impossible if you're unsure where to start. If that sounds like you, I'm so glad you found my page and I'm here to help.

I've had the pleasure of seeing the positive impacts that therapy can have in the toughest of times. While the journey may not always be easy, I will always believe in your ability to do hard things. Witnessing people navigating through their most challenging moments and emerge empowered, having undergone personal growth, reaffirms my belief in the transformative power of therapy, and you. Currently accepting new clients (youth and young adults), both in-person and virtual.

I enjoy working with individuals who are on a journey of self-discovery, which may include unresolved issues from the past, or difficulty finding the path forward. As someone who has had an eventful journey so far, I am happy to share my combined clinical knowledge, and life lessons learned, with those who are searching for answers to their own questions. I help clients understand how they move through the world, how the mind works, how to develop better coping and communication skills, and how to improve resiliency and functioning.

I believe that choosing to tell and own our story is the bravest thing we will ever do. My commitment is to create a safe, non-judgemental, and warm place where you can feel seen and heard. In my clinical practice, it is a privilege and pleasure to work with youth (16 yrs+), adult individuals, and couples. I support people as they work through various mental health difficulties, relational issues, sexuality, LGBTQ issues, overwhelming experiences, and identity. I have a special interest and research focus on emotion regulation issues (uncontrolled/overcontrolled emotion), intimacy, shame, and anxiety disorders.

I provide warm, heart-connected and empathetic counselling, coaching, mediation and hypnotherapy services to individuals, couples and families. I concentrate on "wholistic" healing and empowerment rather than on being clinical and "helping". Basically, I form what I call a "Healing Partnership" with the people who come for my services. I tend to be quite eclectic and bring a wide range of skills, techniques, modalities and wisdom to each counselling interaction. Please contact me to enhance your life and to make the most of each moment.
My favourite slogan is: "Listening well is the most eloquent sign of caring."
