My practice is focused on working collaboratively with clients facing unexpected challenges, difficult transitions, or situations that call for a change in direction and/or a re-imagination of identity.

My goal is to provide affordable and effective therapy in a supportive, non-pathologizing environment where we will work together so you can:

• reconstruct meanings, daily patterns, and your sense of self in the face of uncertainty, loss or injury/illness; 
• find new possibilities by clarifying a vision for the life you want moving forward;

• examine and redefine your relationship with emotions, ways of thinking and/or patterns of behaviours that make you feel stuck (e.g., depression, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relational styles, perfectionism, etc.); 

• develop insight about past and present situations in order to understand your own reactions and behaviours;

• develop the skills, abilities, confidence, and perspective to achieve your goals and maintain lasting change

While I utilize a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches (e.g., narrative-constructivist, existential, emotion-focused therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behaviour therapy), my work with my clients is always based first and foremost on a deep belief in the importance of a strong, respectful therapeutic relationship, and the need for every person to feel valued, heard, and known.

To see if I am the right match for you, I invite you to learn more about the services offered and about me, my approach and my 25+ years of experience in the field of counselling and education.
