I work with women struggling with anxiety, depression, domestic violence, trauma, grief, anger & self esteem . Here you'll find solution-focused answers that result in lasting, positive change and growth. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for everyone, but using a combination of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and other therapies, I will tailor a plan just for you to achieve your goals and gain the tools to face whatever life brings you. Learn to live a peaceful, symptom-free life with your needs and goals in mind. I've been where you are - it takes a lot of courage to ask for help, and I will be here for you every step of the way.

I specialize in treating women from all walks of life experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, guilt, self-esteem, anger and abuse issues. You are not alone! I have worked with civilians, military members and their loved ones, and understand the importance of recognizing the unique needs of every client that I meet.
As a therapist, I am passionate about my work, and I provide an empathetic, non-judgmental and warm environment to support my clients’ needs throughout their therapeutic journey in a safe space. It's important that you feel a connection with your therapist. Call or email me to book a free 30-minute consultation so we can get to know each other!
