Life is a journey. Are you at a crossroad, feeling lost, or in a ditch? I will support you as you navigate each mile. 

I view counseling as a collaborative process that honors each aspect of your identity—mind, body, and spirit. My client-centered approach builds on a trusting relationship to explore your concerns and support you in reaching your goals. By building on your strengths and tailoring treatment plans to your needs, I aim to create a safe space where growth and healing can flourish. 

My background in community service, education and child and youth care spanning over 20 years brings a unique blend of education, experience, and empathy to my practice. These experiences have fueled my understanding of, and passion for, supporting people in their processing of trauma and adverse childhood experiences. Living with a chronic medical condition has strengthened my understanding of the complexities of coping with your life when your body lets you down.

In my free time, I dedicate myself to creating a sustainable lifestyle and community-mindedness, supporting initiatives like 4H Nova Scotia and local animal welfare programs. These experiences have enriched my understanding of diverse perspectives and strengthened my commitment to supporting change through making meaningful connections.

You are not alone. I am here to navigate your journey with you. When you’re ready, book a free consultation to see if we’re the right fit to work together.
