As a proud mom and coach to three young adults, I understand life can throw you a curve ball. My strengths as a therapist include, answering the “why” and “how”. I love helping adolescents, and adults with their families, to get on that road to healing. I specialize in substance use disorder, and ADHD coaching. I have an abundance of experience working with university students, helping with organization skills, time management and perfectionist. Each client is unique, so I have a tool box with many approaches such as, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, DBT and CBT to name a few.

My ideal client is someone who is motivated. Someone who is willing to take steps to make changes. Whether they are willing to learn some skills to help with their anxiety, depression, stress etc. or whether they are learning to manage difficult situations. I enjoy working with people who are willing to take what we learn in session and apply it to their life. I love working with people of different backgrounds and different needs.

Critical to my unique approach is the integration of the Polyvagal Theory, ensuring you “feel safe” and that you are given the proper time and understanding to fully process stressful and traumatic experiences leading to the resolution of these experiences at the nervous system level.

One of the consequences of stress is re-experiencing it in the mind and body, leaving us depleted and disconnected from life. Intense reactions can be confusing and distressing. Making sense of our experiences, putting them in perspective, and changing unhelpful ways of thinking, behaving, and coping increases our resilience. I welcome individuals from all walks of life and have a particular interest in survivors of sexual violence and exploitation; first responders, frontline workers, military, veterans and their families; survivors of adverse childhood experiences; workplace stress and life transitions; and older adults.

It can be very difficult to find a therapist who you might feel can be helpful to you. I like to think of therapy as first and most importantly a relationship. Some might have a sense that things are not as they might hope. We live in a time of loneliness, confusion, separation, conflict and it seems our cultural framework that is meant to hold all of this together is failing. At the heart of what is missing for so many is a place of love and belonging. Or perhaps you’ve lost sight of a sense of meaning in your life? Maybe you’ve received recently some deeply troubling news about your own health or the recent loss of a loved one?
