You may be considering counselling therapy for a specific reason such as a grief or sadness, difficulty in controlling your use of drugs or alcohol, or life changes such as separation and divorce. Perhaps life simply seems difficult. Many of us will have had difficult experiences at some stage of our lives that may have affected our sense of self or leave us searching for more. Although it may be difficult to reach out for help, please know that I will hear your story with compassion, openness, and a willingness to support you in your healing process.

Many of my clients are people who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, and relationship issues or family issues. I have experience working with first responders, 2SLGBTQI+ folk, neurodivergent folk, people who have experienced migration, at-risk youth, and more. I am fluent in both English and French and provide services in both languages. I am a Registered Social Worker in Ontario, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador, and am available to clients located anywhere in those provinces.
