Great to meet you!

I am passionate about helping people move through the challenging moments in life. I have over 10 years expeience working in hospital and community settings helping those at their worst moments. I enjoy helping people process emotions and challenge their thinking.

In more recent years I have gotten my certificate in perinatal mental health. As a mom of three, I enjoy supporting parents through the ups and downs of raising children.

My approach to therapy

You should leave therapy feeling it was a good use of your time. I want to make sure our focus is on your goalsl. I like to check in with people often about how they feel they are progressing and what they need. I want to challenge people to make progress but in a manner that is warm and supportive.

What you can expect from me

In our first sessions we talk about what brought you to seek support, your immeidate goals and get to know eachother. The therapy realtionship is important, I want to make sure you feel like we are a good fit.
