I have 20+ years of experience, as well as having worked as a Registered Play Therapist/Supervisor for 17 years.
I help persons of all ages whose anxiety is spoiling their ability to participate fully in life. Chronic untreated anxiety is a deep form of suffering not visible to others.

I provide safe, supportive and interactive help to enable you, or your loved one, to manage and overcome anxieties and fears. Together we can make your life and relationships better.
