ABOUT

Canadian born, over 30 years in the field, I believe everyone has the wisdom within. It’s important to me to provide a warm and accepting environment that will allow us to work together to assist you in reconnecting to your inner guiding voice. I have learned through guiding individuals on their own path, as well as from my own life experience that although at times we are challenged by difficulties, these junctions can be a valuable opportunity for growth. Though people may feel reluctant to reach out for help, I believe that taking this step forward is a wise choice that will allow you to explore and discover your innate strengths and acquire better coping skills, enabling you to make more effective decisions from a place of self-awareness.

I worked for the Ministry of Education for 30 years, specializing in teenagers coping with a variety of issues, including, learning disabilities, ADHD, social and family relationships, sexual abuse and other trauma. In addition, I provide parent counselling. In my private practice, I treat individuals ages 9-90 specializing in teenagers and adults coping with various life issues, including social, functional, relationships, trauma, grief, fertility, mid-life challenges, oncology patients and chronic illness. I also conduct group therapy for adults as well as personal growth workshops for the general public. My treatment approach is multidisciplinary. While it is founded on art therapy and classic psychotherapy, my methods include art expression, verbal discussion, writing, EFT, breathing techniques and guided imagery, which I adapt according to the needs of the individual.
