I am passionate about supporting individuals to live their lives as fully as possible. We often focus our energy on our 'to do' lists and our responsibilities to others - putting our own needs on the back burner. Counselling allows individuals to identify their challenges and strengths, and replenish their energy, enjoyment and well-being. Individual contexts and issues will be varied - in fact, that is part of what I love about this work.

Birth can be beautiful and scary. And when a birth doesn't go as planned, it can affect us in ways that we never expected. Right now, you may be staring at your newborn feeling overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, sadness, or fear. Or maybe you’re reeling from a miscarriage, stillbirth, or TFMR, and you need someone to help carry your pain without dismissal or judgment. Or you've gotten through that first year and are dreading the end of your leave and don't know how you're going to get through the transition to work and daycare. If this is you, I can help!

I am best able to help clients who are desirous of making changes in their lives and understand that "the slower you go, the faster you get there". My practice provides a safe space for patients to put all of their thoughts and feelings into words. As patients talk, they learn about themselves and better understand their journey. As the unconscious becomes conscious, patients are able to make more thoughtful and meaningful choices and thus begin to live more full and meaningful lives.

Practicing from an ecological stance, I recognize that individuals exist within larger systems that significantly impact our wellbeing. It's important for me to understand all aspects of a client's life beyond their presenting symptoms to form a well-rounded picture of the contributing factors in their mental health experiences. I primarily work with mature adolescent and adult clients for individual, couple and family therapy.
