About Me
With over 25 years of experience, I have worked with a variety of client concerns, particularly with those struggling with anxiety, depression or grief.
I have also walked alongside survivors who have navigated the deep impact of childhood trauma or the pain of abusive personal relationships. My approach is trauma-informed and blends the latest research with down to-earth, integrated methods, pairing clinical skill with compassionate curiosity to help you achieve healing and lasting change. My practice welcomes individuals from all walks of life including integrating Christian perspectives for those looking for a faith-based approach to their wellness. My goal is to create a safe space where your experiences are honoured, your voice is amplified, and you can move toward the life you want to live.
