Counselling
MY APPROACH
My personal counselling philosophy is rooted in a strong desire to connect with my clients. My hope is to learn and grow alongside my clients, as part of a collaborative team, tackling their challenges together.
I come into each interaction free of judgment and with an appreciation that my clients have chosen to trust me with their journey. I strive to create a space and relationship that provides my clients the sense of safety, that working through their personal struggles not only requires but deserves.

I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT...
I am passionate about both my family and my clients—both bring immense joy to my life. As part of a blended family, I understand the challenges of balancing the needs of a family unit while also respecting the uniqueness of each individual. Being a working mom means I spend a significant amount of time in my car, which led me to discover my love for podcasts. Sometimes, the drive to and from work is the only “me” time I get in a day, and listening to the Armchair Expert podcast has become one of my favorite ways to unwind.
More than anything, connection is what truly fills my soul—especially spending quality time with loved ones and catching up over a good meal (though, admittedly, cooking is not my strong suit!).
When I think about change and counseling, what stands out most is how difficult those first steps can be in reconnecting with ourselves. At the same time, not honoring our needs is also difficult. What I love most about this work is witnessing the impact of those initial steps—seeing how they lead to meaningful growth and a better quality of life for my clients.
