In addition to my work with children and teens, a significant part of my career is dedicated to supporting adults through individual and couples counselling.  My areas of specialization include: adult ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, stress, burnout, pain management, sleep concerns, low self-esteem/confidence, addiction and developing healthy boundaries. I have advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, particularly for individuals recovering from motor vehicle accidents and trauma. I also enjoy working with professionals and businesses in the realm of preparing to return to work, navigating medical leave and achieving sustainable work/life balance. I take pride in making therapy as smooth as possible by collaborating with other professionals involved in my clients’ care, including insurance representatives, rehabilitation consultants, physicians, lawyers and employers. One of my core therapeutic aims is to help clients manage stress effectively and build fulfilling lives rooted in all eight dimensions of wellness.

Having a safe place to voice your concerns and express your emotions can be so powerful. We often get lost in our past hurts and are unable to communicate effectively with those we love, which is where effective, non-judgmental guidance can be helpful. My practice is grounded in respect, integrity, and genuine care for my clients. My approach is integrative and individualized, recognizing that each person’s story is unique. Together, we’ll co-create meaningful goals and draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), among others. 

I bring not only clinical knowledge but also lived experience—having learned to navigate my own challenges with stress and balance, I approach therapy with authenticity and empathy. 

My professional experience ranges from working in an intensive outpatient clinic for addiction and trauma, to providing short and long-term therapy for community agencies and private practices, to developing and implementing treatment programs across Canada. I have also designed and implemented psychoeducational groups and support groups for children, parents, and adults in outpatient settings.

At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to helping people move through difficult times and reconnect with what gives life meaning, purpose, and joy.
