I specialize in counselling adults, couples, and parents affected by ADHD, addiction (mild to moderate) , substance use concerns, disordered eating, emotion dysregulation, and mood disorders (including Bipolar). I was a teacher, school counsellor, eating disorder counsellor, and generalist counsellor for a busy non-profit, working with many people of all ages for a wide variety of issues. I view each person as strong, capable, and full of potential for healing and growth. I provide guidance, feedback, or direction when asked or when necessary and always empathic, skilled listening. I’m a mom, wife, artist, and ADHDer/advocate.
I have a deep understanding of each of the issues I work with from professional and lived experience. Often these issues are complex and have lots of overlap but I always see beyond the “problem” and focus on the strengths and goals. I have a sense of humour and an eclectic, down to earth style. If we’re a good fit, we can work through a lot together.
