I am a previous first responder, with experience in law enforcement. I have worked with numerous military, policing, fire services and correctional personnel since becoming a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist. I specialize in individual and couples therapy.

I have experience helping clients with issues related to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, emotion regulation, issues with their relationship(s), social isolation, gender and sexual identity, loss, and trauma. In my work, I seek to help clients integrate themselves using a strengths-based, holistic perspective, seeking to facilitate a better understanding of how environmental, social, and cultural factors contribute to their individual problems and chosen responses. By employing this integrative approach to therapy, I find it better assists clients in making positive and lasting changes within all spheres of their lives.

I offer in person sessions at my Napanee office location as well as virtual sessions for any Ontario resident.

Common issues for services provided are: depression, anxiety, relationship or marriage troubles, family dynamics, work-related stress, emotion regulation, sexuality, trauma, coping skills, anger management, grief, help with assertive communication and boundary setting.
