Hi! Would you like your relationship to be so much more than it is? Or perhaps you're in the middle of a divorce, or you've experienced some other tragic loss and you feel so lonely and misunderstood. Are you hiding in shame and want a way out? Are you wondering where God is in all of this, as many of us do? Do you envision a life full of hope and joy where you can be your best and truest self? I specialize in Christian counselling, relationship issues, self confidence, and shame. I would be honored if you would be willing to collaborate with me to work towards a happier, healthier you.

My life experience includes Registered Nursing work, volunteering in medical missions, and facilitating group therapy for mood disorders. I hold a Master's degree in clinical counseling, certification in personality disorders, sex therapy, grieving, and Dialectical Behaviour therapy. I completed my externship in Emotionally-Focused Therapy.

My clients describe me as a compassionate, warm, patient and non-judgmental therapist. Let's work together to find solutions that work for you! Contact me for a free 15 minute session to see if we're a good fit.
