I’m a counsellor with a Diploma in Addictions Counselling and a Degree in Social Work. I bring both professional experience and personal understanding to my work, meeting clients with warmth, respect, and a genuine belief in their strengths.
I work with children, youth, individuals, and couples who are facing challenges such as ADHD, autism, caregiving stress, depression, grief and loss, and addiction. I also support couples navigating differences in communication styles. I have a strong focus on men’s mental health, helping men manage stress, express emotions, build healthy relationships, explore identity, and navigate life transitions.
My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and able to move at your own pace.
Outside of sessions, I enjoy spending time outdoors and creating meaningful memories with my children.
