Personal Counselling and Parent Consulting

You're dealing with too much stress or trauma. There's fighting. You feel exhausted and alone. Your love has grown cold. There are so many competing priorities--kids, family, school, and career.

Do you feel like you're working too hard?

Everyone struggles sometimes. You need a place to feel safe, heard, and empowered. Get to the root of the issues and get out of the merry-go-round arguments.

Cultivate the courage to be yourself and fully engage in your life and your relationships.

Informed by relationship and developmental science, stress and trauma studies, somatic work, play, and neuroscience, I offer a roadmap to effective parenting and personal well-being. 

While I have a full practice load, I often have a few spots open up each month. Click here to join my waitlist. As soon as I have a space open up I will be in touch. For current clients, you may book sessions here.

Please note that all sessions are currently conducted by telephone or online through a secure video platform with end-to-end encryption.

Find your confidence as a parent.

You're overwhelmed by stress and feel stuck.  Your past is affecting your life and your relationships more than you'd like. You feel frustrated, sad, angry, anxious, hypervigilant, or simply feel numb.

Life shouldn't be so hard.

I have studied the art and science of emotional health and well-being and provided therapy to couples and individuals for over 20 years. I will walk beside you as you navigate the difficulties you are facing and support you in transforming the challenges into fertile ground for your own well-being.

Couples Counselling

This is not how you imagined your relationship would be. You've lost the spark, there's too much arguing and you feel alone. You both spend too much time on your phone and not enough time connecting. You feel underappreciated or disrespected and you're tired of feeling rejected.

You have too many competing priorities between your personal goals, your career, your friendships, and your family responsibilities, without feeling satisfied with any of them.

I know how painful it is to feel like things will never change or get any better. All partnerships go through difficult seasons.

I have studied the science of relationships and accompanied couples on the journey to greater intimacy and connection for over 20 years.

Get to the root of the issues and out of the merry-go-round arguments.

Rediscover your care for each other and fall back in love again.

Parent Consulting

You're dealing with tempers, tantrums and tears. They're not listening, they're misbehaving and are full of resistance and opposition. You’ve tried everything, from talking to them and lecturing them to punishing them. You've talked with friends and family and searched the internet for advice. You're emotionally spent and feel impotent as a parent.

There is an overwhelming amount of conflicting information about parenting and lots of it does not work or comes with a cost.

I will give you a roadmap to parenting and development--whether it be for toddlers, elementary, high school, university, or adult-age children--and a plan to help them reach their potential. Inspired by the Neufeld approach, and based on a relational and developmental perspective, I help to find ways to make sense of these behaviours as well as to find practical strategies for addressing the difficulties.

Find your confidence and rediscover your joy as a parent.
