About Me

I was born and raised in Stratford Ontario, and live there still with my family. And thanks to virtual care I am fortunate to work with individuals from all over Ontario.

I have been a therapist for 6 years and have been working in the field of social work for 15+ years. I am committed to working collaboratively with people to identify problems/concerns and create a custom intervention plan to improve wellbeing and move towards healing.

I am passionate about offering a warm, safe and validating environment and I use a strengths-based and person centered approach. My work is individualized to meet your needs, but will draw on Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Attachment Theory and uses a trauma informed lens.

I specialize in depression, anxiety, life stressors, trauma, family violence, infertility and maternal wellness.

It is my belief that people have the capacity to change and improve their quality of life no matter their circumstances. And I consider it a joy and a privilege to walk along side people on their journey to healing.
