SERVICES

I work with each client to hear and understand life experiences and how they inform what challenges or concerns are showing up in the present moment. Since opening a private practice in 2018, I have provided individual counselling to people with a wide variety of concerns. Through my own journey, I have developed some areas of special interest. I am passionate about providing healing to mothers and families who have experienced infant loss, miscarriage and/or family planning difficulties. Additionally, I work with adults with intellectual disabilities/developmental delays and their families. I have over a decade expertise working within the developmental services sector, I am committed to making this service adaptable to help all levels of cognitive abilities.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Personalized Support

I know it takes a great amount of courage to show up for therapy and to be vulnerable to the experience. If you are looking to be heard, to find out who you are, why your experiences make sense, and to feel safety in your sessions then you’ve come to the right place. I am honored to meet new clients and to share in each person's journey. Get in touch for a consultation (no fee,) to begin your own journey.

POSTPARTUM/LOSS/FAMILY PLANNING

Area of Interest

I am able to bring the perspective of understanding to this area of interest. In my own experience, I found there were few services offered where I could grieve, get support, and be heard. For this reason - I will show up as my best self to best serve you and your process. I will provide you with the space to feel all the feelings that may make your friends, family, supports etc., uncomfortable. I will not offer you a silver lining - but rather support you where you are at and hold space for you to be heard.

ADULTS AND FAMILIES SUPPORTING LOVED ONES WITH AN INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY/DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY

Area of Expertise

With over ten years experience working with adults and families who have developmental delays and or intellectual disabilities, I am able to provide a personalized approach that is supportive and adapted to work with each ability that comes forward. With a strong knowledge base in the developmental services sector, and the ability to adapt psychotherapy to a way that is relatable, I am confident I can help. One hour sessions are available, but can feel long sometimes. I offer half hour sessions to work on the interventions being taught while keeping cognitive abilities in mind.

Univerisity/College Students

Area of Expertise

The student experience provides a unique set of challenges for each person who is navigating independence, pressure, budgeting, life transitions, stress/anxiety, and learning about your identity as it evolves. I do work as a Psychotherapist at UWO part time and have a strong understanding of some of the common difficulties and struggles. I offer sliding scale for students to help stretch out your benefits over the course of the year.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR VISIT

Firstly, I am here for you.

 

Welcome, I am so glad you stopped by to learn a little about what to expect:

The first thing that happens is I will send you a form via email to fill out before we meet. The form collects information about general history and can help me gain a deeper understanding of what brought you to therapy. Doing it before we meet saves your first session for actual therapy, instead of completing a form together!

​

If you wanted to know more about me, how we can work together, or have any questions - ask! Take advantage of the free consultation. Know that there is a part of therapy where each of us will be getting to know each other, taking the first step is the hardest part - it will get easier from there.

​

During our first session I will spend a few minutes going over consents. What this means is sharing the limits of confidentiality and making sure we are a good fit to work together. Once that part is done we will move into therapy. Remember, therapy is at your own pace, you are the expert, and by facing things like sadness, fear and pain we can help to develop life altering results where you can develop new insights into difficult experiences and step back into your life with new skills.
