Let's face it, finding the right therapist can feel a lot like online dating. Sifting through a sea of bios, trying to get a sense of who will be the right fit for your therapeutic journey. There are plenty of great therapists out there, and we all have something different to offer. You're right to invest this much time and energy in finding the perfect match because the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors for your progress. In fact, studies show that a good therapist-client relationship can improve therapy outcomes by up to 30%. So, keep reading to decide if we might be the a "therapeutic match"...

With 20 years of experience in a variety of healthcare roles, two Masters Degrees (1st in Adult Learning & 2nd in Counselling Psychology), and nearly 15 years living/working overseas, my clients often comment on the unique perspective I add to the therapeutic process. I am dedicated to helping clients navigate life's challenges and embrace self-discovery.

I love working with people from all walks of life, and sometimes its hard to specify the exact types of clients I work with since I open to tackling a variety of challenges and goals. My experience is in couples/relationship, parenting support and individual challenges (i.e. grief/loss, divorce, postpartum, phobias, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress).
