Are you thinking about reaching out to someone? Do you feel overwhelmed and are unsure where to start? Please don’t hesitate to reach out. My passion is working with individuals just like you!

I have been counselling for 8 years. I have experience working in the education system and private practice. I work with a variety of age groups from young children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My clients have reached out for a variety of life challenges including anxiety, depression, grief, abuse, and addiction to name a few.

Building trusting relationships with my clients and working collaboratively in the healing process is most important to me. Being flexible and adaptable to meet my clients where they are is essential, while utilizing clear and concise communication skills throughout the entire therapeutic process. Don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!

Do you feel “stuck”? Are you having difficulty understanding how to move forward in your life?

Life can present us with challenges and changes. The purpose of therapy is to help empower you to thrive. By focusing on building a trusting relationship, we can delve into difficult topics, focus on healing, and work towards wellness. In our session it’s all about you and what you need to heal!

The focus of my practice is to assist clients in healing from trauma and creating their own personal power. I like to encourage clients to identify their values, build resilience, and create healthy relationships. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan, including families, couples, and individuals (adults, youth and children). Although I am an experienced therapist, I am also a former teacher and I often assist children and teens in navigating school related issues. Based on the needs of my clients, I use an integrated therapeutic approach and tailor our sessions to help create growth.

My trauma-informed training includes the following modalities: Solution-Focused, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Couples Therapy (Gottman), Healing From Grief, Family Systems Therapy, Education Related Issues and Support, Art Therapy, and Play-based Therapies. I have experience and training in working with minority populations, as well as issues related to Indigenous populations and generational trauma. I am also trained in attachment theory and how it may impact how we relate to others. I often provide parenting support for families who are going through significant challenges.

I encourage client’s to schedule a complimentary consultation with me to determine if my services are a good fit for what they need.
