Supporting women through trauma, toxic relationships, ADHD, burnout, anxiety, grief, life transitions and menopause.  Helping you heal, rediscover who you are and thrive

BOOK YOUR SESSION TODAY

My Philosophy

Life has a way of knocking us off course.

Whether you've experienced trauma, burnout, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief or a toxic relationship, it's easy to lose sight of who you are beneath everything you've carried.

Whatever has brought you here, I'm so glad you found your way.

When women first walk through my door, many tell me they're nervous. They're worried they'll be judged, they'll say the wrong thing, or they'll fall apart.

Let me reassure you, you don't have to have it all together here.


My therapy lounge is a place where you can take off the mask, exhale, and simply be yourself.  There is no judgement.  No expectations.  Just a safe, compassionate space where you'll be heard, understood and supported.

One of the things my clients appreciate most is that therapy with me feels like a genuine conversation.  Together, we'll make sense of what's happened, gently challenge the patterns keeping you stuck, and discover practical ways to create meaningful, lasting change.

I often tell my clients,

"I'll be your compass until you can find your own True North."

To me, that's what therapy is all about.

Helping you heal from what's hurt you, reconnect with yourself, and create a life that feels peaceful, purposeful and authentically yours.


Whether you're feeling broken, overwhelmed, or simply ready for your next chapter, I'd be honoured to walk alongside you.

You don't have to have all the answers today.

You simply have to take the first step.

How We Can Work Together

Psychotherapy for Women

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Psychotherapy for Women

Every woman's journey is different.  Your therapy should be too.  Each session is thoughtfully tailored to you:  your experiences,  your unique needs and meeting you where you are in your healing journey.  Compassionate, practical psychotherapy designed to help you heal, grow and move forward with confidence.

Trauma & PTSD Therapy

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Psychotherapy for Women

Healing begins when you feel safe enough to no longer live in survival mode.  Trauma Therapy is designed to help you regulate and heal your nervous system, process trauma, and helps you rediscover the parts of yourself that have been buried beneath it all.

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Leaving a toxic relationship is only the beginning. Together, I help you heal from the emotional impact, rebuild your sense of self, and create a future no longer defined by your past.

Anxiety & Depression

ADHD Therapy for Women

Narcissistic Abuse & Toxic Relationship Recovery

Experiencing general anxiety, panic, and overthinking can significantly impact your sense of identity and self-worth. Many women find themselves battling low mood and a loss of motivation.  Together, we'll gently uncover what's keeping you stuck and help you find calm, hope and a renewed sense of self.

ADHD Therapy for Women

ADHD Therapy for Women

ADHD Therapy for Women

ADHD is about so much more than being distracted. Together, we'll work to better understand your unique brain, reduce overwhelm, build practical strategies, and help you create a life that works for you, not against you.

Burnout Recovery

ADHD Therapy for Women

ADHD Therapy for Women

Chronic stress and emotional exhaustion can lead to high-functioning burnout, making it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance.  Burnout is more than feeling exhausted.  It's feeling disconnected from yourself. Together, we'll restore your energy, regulate your nervous system, and help you create a life that's balanced, meaningful and sustainable.

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Sometimes the hardest question isn't "What do I want?".  It's "Who am I now?" Together, we'll help you rediscover who you are, reconnect with what matters most, and create a life that feels true to you.  This is your time to BECOME!

Grief & Life Transitions

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Life doesn't always unfold the way we planned. Bereavement, divorce, and relationship breakdowns can profoundly impact a woman's identity and self-worth.  Therapy provides a compassionate space to navigate loss, embrace change, and gently move forward, one step at a time.

Faith-Based Psychotherapy

Identity, Confidence & Personal Growth

Faith-Based Psychotherapy

For women who would like to incorporate their Christian faith into therapy, sessions can thoughtfully integrate your faith alongside evidence-based psychotherapy. Women of all backgrounds, beliefs and life experiences are warmly welcomed and will always be treated with compassion, respect and without judgement.
