MY STORY
My passion for working with people began at a young age. This passion led me on an educational journey that has focused on mental health, substance use challenges, trauma, and teaching. I have a Master of Counselling through Athabasca University and a post-grad certificate in Substance Use Counselling.
My training includes CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, trauma therapy, attachment therapy, and the Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
Over the past 25 years, I have worked in a variety of settings including community service agencies, a youth health centre, private practice, schools, and children and family service agencies.
I have had the privilege of working with people impacted by trauma, substance use, violence, relationship difficulties, and mental health issues. My educational background and experience working with individuals, couples, and families from a variety of backgrounds and ages has helped me to develop my abilities and integrated therapeutic approach.
ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS
I offer a variety of counselling services to help you move past the obstacles in your life. I will help you identify your personal values, strengths, and abilities in support of your personal and professional goals. Contact me to see how I can help you achieve the outcomes you’re striving for.

RELATIONSHIP COUNSELLING
Get the Most out of Life
Sometimes life's pressures or circumstances can result in the breakdown of relationships. Counselling can help repair the damage done from these breakdowns. When our close relationships are thriving our mental, emotional and physical wellbeing are likely to improve. Moreover, building a secure attachment with our teenagers can improve their ability to make healthy choices, increase their emotional regulation, and improve their educational outcomes. Whether you are a couple wanting to learn how to manage conflict without getting into hurtful fights, or a parent wanting to connect with their teenager/s, or want to repair any meaningful relationship, I am here to help you set therapeutic goals to meet your needs.
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELLING
Embrace Life’s Challenges
My approach to therapy is compassionate and person-centred. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can work together to create a therapeutic plan that is in line with your values, beliefs, and goals. My job is to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. After several sessions, you will become well-versed at handling issues whenever and wherever they arise. Call now to schedule a session.
