I have extensive experience providing therapy and education on a wide range of mental health topics to youth, adults, families and communities. I help people struggling with symptoms consistent with their diagnosed disorders, such as anxiety, and mood disorders as well as those struggling with a compilation of stress in their lives, such as job, family/relationship, trauma, grief or addictions. At times we need extra support and guidance in dealing with life's challenges. I like to build on a person's strengths empowering them to make positive changes, reducing their negative coping and negative thought patterns.

Each challenging moment provides an opportunity to slow down, reflect and to integrate what life hands us. Sometimes this is messy, often it is hardship, but my hope is to walk alongside my clients and to see them through to what is next, hopefully with a renewed sense of strength, self-acceptance and awareness. I've worked for the provincial Eating Disorder Program, Family/Parenting Centre and in Community based Women's Health services. These experiences have provided me with a deep respect and admiration for my clients' strength and resilience.

Many people face struggles in their daily lives and don't understand why.

We offer low cost ADHD/ADD assessment that can assist in the process of diagnosing ADHD/ADD. We also offer counselling/therapy to assist in building function and capacity.

Sometimes our experiences in life can create challenges that negatively impact our well-being, the relationships we have with others and ourselves, and our view of the world. Reaching out for support when you need it is a sign of self-awareness – a marker of hope that things can feel different and a readiness to explore how. My goal is to provide a space where we can talk openly about the challenges you’ve been experiencing and work towards change that brings greater enjoyment in relationships, including the one with yourself, and life in general.

Teens are naturally wired to look for and try new things. Sometimes trying new things and searching for independence can be a step towards helping teens find purpose in their life. I have been working with adolescents, teens, adults, and families for over 20 years. I began my career working in schools with many neurodiverse students, supporting them and helping their families advocate for the services they needed and overcoming the barriers that often stand in their way. From here I moved to the role of a guidance counsellor where I found my passion helping many preteens and teens overcome obstacles in their lives.
