Life is hard, and the challenges we meet in our relationships, work, and daily tasks can create tremendous stress and uncertainty. I provide a warm and comfortable environment where you and I can work as a team to unpack issues troubling you – I am non-judgmental, have a good sense of humour, and I thrive in supporting people through challenging times. As a mature woman, I have faced my own issues with anxiety, relationship stress, and parenting difficulties, and through my personal and professional experiences I have come to understand how powerful the psychotherapy process is at fostering self-awareness and emotional resilience.

My heart is for those who are overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck, struggling, and disconnected. Your story has made you who you are, but it doesn’t have to define your future. I believe you are the expert on your experience and my role is to help you find yourself again. During my years working with survivors of intimate partner violence, I developed a passion for supporting people through their personal journey of growth and healing. As a mother of four teens and young adults with ADHD and ASD, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families understand neurodiversity and learn to flourish.

"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." - Carl Rogers. As individuals, we spend our lives on a continuous expedition of self-discovery and personal growth, marked by highs and lows. Throughout our journey, therapy can become a guiding compass to build resilience and strength to overcome challenges that we may face along the way. Through embracing the transformative approach of self-acceptance, we accept our ability to cultivate positive change within ourselves and our relationships.

I'm an RP & RN who specializes in supporting children, youth and adults who are navigating their own serious illness, or grieving the serious illness or death of someone in their life. I work closely with our team of grief therapists all of whom share a passion for ensuring that people of all ages have access to compassionate and skilled support for navigating the incredibly difficult yet very human experience of grief. While we take a non-pathological view of grief, we are well aware of the challenges that come with experiencing grief in a death-phobic and grief-illiterate society and we help our clients navigate this.

Understanding yourself and the challenges you face is no easy feat, but choosing to seek support in this shows you value yourself. Clients I see may be grieving, struggling to manage daily tasks, or needing help to regulate emotions – whatever you're facing, I'm so glad you're here. The speed of life can feel overwhelming. “Stillness in the noise is where strength is found” – these words came to me when I felt defeated. Since then, I've seen stillness as a precursor to strength. I believe being still allows us to be aware of both our internal state and our outer world, providing the clarity needed to face challenges and uncertainty.
