I help adults and teens (16+) who want to be their true and authentic selves but are experiencing barriers and challenges in doing so. I work with people facing challenges related to anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, life transitions, smoking cessation, stress/burnout, substance use, or issues in their intimate partner or other relationships.
Feeling stuck is no fun. I understand and can help. We’ll work together on identifying your personal values and strengths. We’ll explore old patterns and habits that might be creating roadblocks on your path forward. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness-based approaches, I’ll help you move from “stuckness” towards personal growth and fulfillment.
I’m a skilled and collaborative counselling therapist with over a decade of experience in mental health and substance use work. I have a Master of Education in Counselling (M.Ed.) and a Registered Counselling Therapist (RCT) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC).
I’m currently on a combined work and vacation schedule until March 10, 2026. During this time, I’m available for video/virtual appointments on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and by appointment at other times. My response time to emails may be delayed by up to 36 hours due to having limited access to email.
I have no access to cell service during the above dates. To speak with me or text me, I am available using the WhatsApp service at (902) 818-3245. The WhatsApp service is available here: https://www.whatsapp.com

Video/Virtual appointments remain fully confidential and use JANE’s ultra-secure, privacy-compliant platform that uses 128-bit encryption, similar to banking level security. As well, no recording or storage of data is allowed on the JANE platform. Safe, secure, AND from the comfort of your place.
I help adults (18+) create meaningful and lasting change in their lives. People often start counselling therapy because they feel stuck due to issues and challenges they’re facing. I work with people of all genders and affectional/sexual orientations experiencing effects of anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, worry/fear, relationship challenges, or substance use. I offer focused support for 2SLGBTQ+ community members in an affirming, safe, and inclusive space.
Life can feel overwhelming. I’ve been there and understand. Together, we’ll work on exploring your strengths, skills, and knowledge that can help you create change that’s important to you. We’ll use narrative therapy as a foundation for our work and draw on solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and music therapy to help you enjoy greater self-awareness, self-empowerment, and well-being.
I’m a skilled and creative counselling therapist who’s been helping people create change since 2012. I have a Master of Education in Counselling (M.Ed.). I’m a Registered Counselling Therapist (RCT) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC).
