About Me 

I am passionate about working with you to resolve the root cause of your distress so your fear doesn't get in the way.  Whether that you are looking to reduce the impact of your mental health symptoms, build your confidence and skills that you can manage the day-today stressors of your life, feel more connected and effective in your parenting role, or to strengthen your connection and skills for managing communication with your partner, I can help.  I am certified EMDR therapist with training in attachment, trauma, family systems, Circle of Security Parenting, Gottman Relationship Skills, mindfulness and resiliency.  

I am a OCSWSSW Registered Social Worker.  I completed my Masters of Social Work program from Wilfried Laurier University in 2022 with an emphasis on working with individuals, families, and groups. I achieved my EMDRIA certification in 2019. I have been a therapist for over 20 years working with children, adolescents, adults, caregivers and families in children's mental health.

​

​I opened my private practice near Gorrie, ON in 2016.  My office is located just off a quiet country road where the counties of Huron, Perth, Bruce, Grey and Wellington counties meet & offer online sessions throughout Ontario.  I decided to open her practice in the same rural, farming  community where was raised, and now live with my family.  Living and working in this community gives me a unique perspective on the challenges facing rural families.  I know what it's like to try to balance farm responsibilities, unpredictable weather, financial stress, long hours, and family life. 

​

​You do not need to struggle alone.  I provide a therapeutic space that is welcoming, private, and confidential.  A place where your lived experience, resiliency and wisdom is honoured.
