As of Feb 27: Now accepting new clients for relationship and adult individual counselling. You may be in a place where you feel there is no hope, no solution, nothing to draw on for help. Together we will rediscover and leverage your internal resources to find the answers you've been seeking to questions like these: What is that feeling in the pit of my stomach? What is it telling me? What is that critical voice in my head that holds me back? Why do I feel so stuck, when all want to do is move forward? My work draws upon an empathic and trusting therapeutic relationship to safely explore your thoughts, behaviours, and emotions.

My approach has been honed through continuous study, and over many years of experience in the field.

My practice is founded on the belief that feelings of safety and connection are the foundations of healing. I; therefore, strive to create therapeutic relationships that feel warm, comfortable, and authentic. My hope is that in such a relationship you are able to be and/or discover your true self and feel deeply understood and cared for.

I have a special focus on working with those with disordered eating, eating disorders and body image concerns. I support my clients in learning new ways to connect with their body, exploring body image, eating habits, and recovery. Additionally, I have worked with those experiencing depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder (BPD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), relationship concerns, and family breakdown.

I agree with Carl Roger's position that all humans are oriented towards growth and self-awareness. Behaviours which once served to nurture and protect us, can become habitual and no longer useful. You are the expert in your life, and if you are seeking counselling, it is likely because what once worked is no longer serving you. In times of transition, whether by choice or demand, we often find ourselves needing new skills to cope with our anxiety, depression, panic or burnout. Our relationships are deeply impacted by our ability to communicate our needs, desires, and boundaries, and yet we are taught so few of these skills.

It is my pleasure to assist clients in connecting with their innate capacity to heal, supporting them to know their inner self and to trust themselves. I have extensive experience assisting a diverse range of clients with symptoms of ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Stress, and Relationship Conflict to achieve their goals, develop new skills, regain emotional balance, and increase their sense of well-being. Clients can expect to feel deeply understood and validated while being gently invited to identify distressing thoughts, feelings, and behaviour patterns that interfere with their ability to live their best life.

Anxiety and depression are common issues in my practice and they can be the underlying condition in many situations. They can affect relationships, parenting, work performance, family dynamics to name a few. Therapy can assist with problem solving and gaining a better understanding of the behaviours that are causing difficulties in life. Some of my work involves life coaching and I am also a divorce coach. I offer expertise and support in the overwhelming process of separation and the difficulties involved in supporting children through divorce and separation.
