Do you picture a life that is hopeful, content and fulfilling but find yourself being weighed down by anger, interpersonal issues, inner conflict, anxieties and depressive episodes? Past circumstances and experiences can shape who we are in the present and obstruct us from having favorable futures. My passion is to explore your life stories that inform your current identity in order to guide you through challenges and obstacles in profound and impactful ways. I am dedicated to working with individuals of all ages to help them answer the daunting “what next” question.

I offer couples a new way to understand and relate to each other. We build connection and intimacy through developing new skills for attention, conversation, and emotional awareness. Couples counselling lets me use all of my skills in one place, it’s an important and special experience where I get to help bring people together - or support them in their vision to move apart, if that’s what they need. I am also passionate about helping with stress in the workplace and relationships, anxiety and depression, and/or ADHD. I’ve seen great success supporting “adult children” who are working to heal parental relationships.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, down, or stuck? Maybe you hit a bump in the road or are not enjoying life as much as you used to. Many of us will struggle with anxiety, depression, and/or related challenges at some point in life, stopping us from enjoying life and becoming our best selves. Learning to manage your symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns (e.g., assertiveness, healthy boundaries, relationships, self-esteem, identity, work or school stress, life transitions, daily functioning) will help you enjoy more of the good things in life. Because life should be sweet.

Is it tough managing family, friendships, and relationships? Navigating challenging aspects of life on your own is not easy. I provide compassionate and strengths-based support for teens, and adults. No matter how big or small the concern, I understand that clients want to feel heard and understood. The clients I support experience feelings of overwhelm and helplessness, while trying to cope with pressures and expectations life throws their way.

Death, divorce, losing a job, relationship struggles, addictions, or uncertainty over the future you hoped for. The sadness and thoughts that show up unexpectedly and won't go away - those are grief and anxiety. It's a heavy consuming feeling and you just want some relief - to feel normal again. You know you need to talk to someone about what you're been through, but don't want to burden your friends or are worried they might judge you. I can help. I’ve worked in an Intensive Care Unit and in the Medical Assistance in Dying Program - I’m no stranger to grief, stress, anxiety, burnout, and shame.

My mission is to support and empower clients on their journey towards growth and healing.

I strive to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with my clients through empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I recognize that there is no “one size fits all” approach to therapy, and as such, I aim to tailor sessions based on your unique individual experiences and needs.

I consider it a special privilege to be able to work with individuals, couples and families as they try to navigate the challenges that life can bring. I do not see myself as the 'expert' in a person's life or experience but work with my clients to help them to break down the barriers that can get in the way of being the person, couple or family that they would prefer to be. My approach is collaborative and I believe that a strong therapeutic connection creates a climate for change that can have lasting results.

I have a passion for working with individuals with anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I am very open about my own experience with anxiety because I strongly feel like it should be normalized, as the majority of individuals experience a mental health need at some point in their lives; there is absolutely no shame in that. I help my clients reach their goals of mental calm by providing them with a safe environment to explore and unpack their fears. Together, we begin to understand the psychology of where that fear has stemmed from and begin to take steps forward in facing our anxiety and in thriving vs. surviving.
