About
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? For 30 years, I’ve studied the causes of depression and anxiety and how to effectively work them through in therapy. Together, we can tackle your sadness, anxieties, self-doubt, and relationship problems at their roots so that you can navigate and overcome the challenges in the future.
What we experienced, we expect. Our past experiences and events can significantly shape who we become and are and how we relate to the world by influencing our self-esteem, coping methods, relationships, and stress management. This approach takes the time to identify and address these past influences, from family and impactful events. Then it dismantles their effects (e.g., symptoms), thus empowering you not to be held back by outdated patterns as we advance.
This is also done when working with couples: Helping understand the impact of the past upon each partner and dismantling what needs to be addressed at the root so it can lead to more authentic communication and intimacy.
I offer a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
I’ll equip you with practical strategies to manage stress arising from family dynamics, work pressures, school demands, and interpersonal relationships. We’ll get you moving towards healing, personal growth, and becoming your authentic self. Our work can help relieve symptoms, discover your purpose, and unlock new possibilities.

With 30 years of experience, I’ve developed a deep and proven approach to therapy. We’ll start by exploring your past experiences and relationships, which can provide valuable insights into unlocking your current challenges. This will help us understand your unique needs and set clear goals for therapy. Once we have explored the past influences and identified any significant ones, we’ll move to the therapy phase. At that point, we will work on all the goals you wish to achieve.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, we’ll work together to address your specific concerns. I’ll create a safe and supportive space where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings.
After therapy, my clients often report feeling more self-aware, confident, and empowered. They’ve experienced improved relationships, reduced stress, and greater well-being.
Many couples have reported that this therapy approach has helped them understand one another more deeply, tackle issues stemming from their family of origin, and resolve conflicts more effectively. Finally, they have often indicated a rebuilding of trust and greater intimacy.
I’ve been a therapist for 30 years, helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges. I have a dual educational background: a Master’s in Adult Counselling and a Ph.D. in Children and Adolescents.
This unique background provides me with a lifespan understanding of the nature of development from the early years to adulthood. My research and clinical experience included working with children as a play therapist. As such, I developed a keen insight into how early symptoms such as anxiety, depression, anger, and low self-esteem can be generated from the home or school environment. It was gratifying to help so many children overcome their challenges and dismantle their symptoms.
I also researched couples and their complexities, such as how their family backgrounds can influence many aspects of their partnership. During my studies, I also conducted research (Ph.D. research) and provided marital therapy to police couples. It continues to be rewarding to treat police officers, their spouses, and their families, as well as all couples.
From my work with children, I have thoroughly understood how our early experiences can shape who we are. That knowledge has significantly assisted in my work with adults, which is why I developed my approach.
It continues to be a privilege to see my clients make important discoveries in their sessions, achieve their goals and lead more fulfilling lives.
Zoom sessions are provided throughout the week (and on some weekends).
