Originally from Winnipeg, my approach is based in CBT and Taoist and Buddhist philosophy. Successes with clients in areas of personal well-being, relationships, family, behavioral health, coping, and adapting to changes inform our work together.

Right from when I was a little girl, I have enjoyed spending time listening to people’s stories. Most of my adult life I have spent as an accountant. However, I found that my true passion was always sitting with clients and not behind a computer. I learned early on that the accounting relationship with clients wasn’t always about numbers. Through additional coursework and involvement in memberships, committees, and boards, I have been able to be a part of facilitating change and growth within the community.

Healthy relationships (including the one with ourselves) are necessary for humans to thrive. What characterizes a healthy relationship, and what influences our ability to participate in them is explored in therapy. Human beings crave attachment and connection but also engage in behaviors that can be hurtful and damaging. Therapy is about healing from the past, learning about boundaries and the process of repair, understanding patterns, self reflection, and working towards goals that are aligned with our values, desires, and needs. I am passionate about working with people of all walks of life who want to create meaningful change.

Therapy - the ebb and flow of healing. The navigation of relationships. The vulnerability we cultivate towards authenticity. Working through temporary discomfort to see the change and growth within ourselves. Acknowledging the fear with the unfamiliar. Seeking therapy can often be a difficult step and perhaps unpredictable. AND with that unpredicaibility, therapy may help you reconnect with curiousity, compassion and understanding. Having been through the therapeutic journey myself, please know that you do not have to walk along this journey on your own.
