My practice is centered upon self acceptance and understanding what you value, which is why Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is my home base, but I draw from many other modalities.

As we move through life, we inevitably run into issues that are difficult to navigate, such as trouble with a boss, spouse / partner, or a struggle with anxiety, depression, or stress. We try our best to solve these issues ourselves. Sometimes, no matter what we try, we can feel as if we are 'banging our head against a wall'. These times can be frustrating, tiring, and scary. At these moments, a helping hand and another perspective may be welcome. I have provided this support to individuals, couples and families since 2000. I would be honoured to partner with you.

I am also a trained mediator and conflict coach, with special expertise in managing conflicts that involve mental illness.
I believe that a fulfilling life comes from integrating all parts of ourselves: our beliefs, our emotions, our behaviour, and our relationships. Forming a strong relationship with my clients, I help them to discover where their strengths lie, and how best to apply them to the areas that need more attention.

Life is too short to be lived on autopilot. Intentional living for what matters can take your life from "same old, same old," to one in alignment with your values and aspirations. I’ve spent over three decades in the worlds of teaching, program development, and psychology. Think of me as your guide. One who’s got a treasure trove of life hacks, insights, and strategies to share. My approach is to empower, not to tell you what to do. My role is to equip you with tools and ideas that will give you more options, and more opportunities to shape the life you want. Together we’ll cultivate a mindset that’s all about growth.

Life can challenge us in ways that leave us feeling overwhelmed and in emotional pain. Sometimes we need help to get back on track. Counselling is an opportunity to feel safe, respected, heard and appreciated for who you really are. It is a place to get perspective on your life, learn coping skills and to explore solutions that work for you.

Are you stuck in a loop of anxiety, negative thinking, emotional turmoil and/or self sabotaging behaviours? Are you tired of suffering, and feeling overwhelmed, and powerless? Do you feel the need for a real solution but have been frustrated by limited or superficial approaches when you have tried therapy before? Through my experience in treating thousands of clients I’ve discovered what is most effective in solving problems and just as importantly, how to help my clients understand themselves and the root of their problem. I empower them with effective tools and insights so they can also coach themselves as they move forward.

I work with adults who are feeling stressed: they may worry, panic or feel shy in social situations, may try to be perfect, may feel badly about themselves, or wish to express themselves more effectively, or to set clearer boundaries with others, or to be more assertive. I also work with people from the straight and LGBTQ communities who are experiencing challenges in their relationships, with sexuality, sexual orientation, alternative relationships, alternative sexualities, and gender. Many experience these challenges, but some may lose a sense of balance in their lives or the ability to enjoy life and relationships while trying to sort out their concerns.

My areas of specialty include PTSD, trauma, depression, anxiety, self-worth, men's issues, and spirituality.
Accepting New Clients - No waitlist - Trauma, depression, and other mental health issues can often cause individuals to become "stuck" leading to feelings of resignation or hopelessness. It can often feel like the individual is at the bottom of a well which keeps getting deeper, with the light out feeling further and further out of reach. It can lead individuals to believe that there is no path forwards, or that any path forward is one devoid of meaning or fulfillment.
