About me

I have been helping people to rebuild their lives and create healthier futures since 1998. I believe that everyone has the ability to make positive changes in their lives. As a counsellor, my job is to act as a catalyst: speeding up this natural process and helping you to get in touch with your own wisdom and solutions. In addition to one-on-one services, I offer individual and group programs that explore anxiety and depression, and that help you clarify boundaries and build resilience. I have specialized experience and training in: Managing depression, anxiety and anger, Easing the symptoms of chronic illness and pain, Coping with stress and burnout, Healing after an auto accident, Building healthy relationships, Exploring and choosing careers, Coping with grief and loss, and Healing from traumatic life events. I use Somatic Experiencing: a gentle, effective approach which works with your nervous system to shift persistent patterns and restore energy and resilience. In addition to counselling, I offer online support for depression, anxiety and post-trauma. You'll find suggestions to help you ease symptoms and work with your body on my You Tube channel, or can register for more in-depth online programs on my website.
