Challenging situations can happen suddenly, or be built up over time, leaving us caught off guard or uncertain of the way forward. Throughout my career I have developed an expertise in counselling people going through distressing or unexpected life circumstances or difficult relationship dynamics. I assist people with grief and loss, relationship strain or change, workplace conflict, bullying, exhaustion/burnout, stress management, or anything which keeps them awake at night. If something has happened to you out of the blue, or you're fed up with some cycle in your life that keeps repeating itself, I can help you move through it.

Clients often come to me when they decide that survival is no longer enough. Whether it's past trauma, depression, anxiety, disconnection from self, lack of purpose, or lack of hope (etc). As humans, we all carry rocks in our proverbial backpacks. I am awestruck by the human capacity to survive and endure. But sometimes the weight that holds us down becomes so familiar that it is almost comforting. If you are reading this, you have found the courage to ask the question, "What if I allow myself to believe that I deserve better?" I love nothing more than helping clients explore what that might look like, and how to get there.

I view psychological wellbeing as I do physical wellbeing - it requires time, care and maintenance. Making the decision to feel better when you feel down does not always come easily. If you are struggling with life, reaching out for help is the right thing to do. My private practice consults with other professionals to provide you with the best, up-to-date and proven treatment options. Some of the treatment models that I am certified in are: Family Based Treatment for Eating Disorders (FBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) and Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE).

Our lives each contain moments of great joy and sorrow, pain and pleasure, opportunity, and obstacle. At the center of these experiences is our innate search for connection. We need relationships, they are precious and critical, and yet they are not always easy to navigate. Do you struggle to express your needs to your partner? Or perhaps you have a hard time setting boundaries with a parent, friend or colleague? Maybe you find yourself repeating the same argument with a sibling or family member?

I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor who loves working with children, teenagers, adults and parents toward a fulfilling life that is envisioned by them.
