Therapy should feel like a place where you are truly heard, understood, and supported—not rushed, judged, or fit into a one-size-fits-all approach. My goal is to help you make meaningful, practical changes by building on your strengths and addressing what’s getting in your way right now.

​

Every person and relationship comes to therapy with unique experiences, beliefs, and coping strategies. I integrate this personal understanding with current clinical research and advanced assessment-informed approaches to create a treatment plan that is tailored specifically to you—your goals, your challenges, and your life.

​

I work with individuals and couples seeking clarity, relief, and direction, offering:

  • Individual and couples counselling

  • Comprehensive clinical assessment services

  • Evidence-based treatment for insomnia, menopause, stress, ADHD, and more

  • Consultation appointments for second opinions or specialized clinical input

​

Many clients come to me when they want clear answers, a thoughtful plan, and confidence they are on the right path—not just ongoing sessions without direction.

​

Outside of my clinical work, I am actively involved in advancing mental health care through conference presentations, professional advocacy across Canada and the U.S., regulatory and scope-of-practice initiatives, and clinical supervision for master’s- and doctoral-level trainees as well as practicing clinicians. I am also engaged in research aimed at improving access, quality, and outcomes in mental health services.

​

I currently provide services for adolescents (ages 12+), adults, and couples.

​

If you’re ready to move forward—or even just want clarity on your next step—I invite you to explore my Treatment Areas & Specialties below and book an appointment that fits your needs.

​

I look forward to working with you toward your goals.
