About

If your own needs always end up at the bottom of the list, you're not alone, and you don't have to keep it that way. Maybe you're a caregiver, a military spouse, or someone who just keeps showing up for everyone else while quietly running on empty. I get it. As a former teacher and a military spouse myself, I know how easily burnout creeps in, and how easy it is to put your own well being off. Life still gets messy for me too, but having the right support and practical strategies changed things, and that's what I want to offer you.

My practice focuses on the symptoms and the root causes of anxiety, burnout, and ADHD. I work with adults and with children, one-on-one, in a friendly and non-judgmental space where you can put down whatever you've been carrying and start making yourself a priority again. If therapy feels unfamiliar or a little intimidating, that's alright. Come as you are and I'll guide you through the process.

In sessions, I lean on a person centred and positive psychology approach, often drawing on Somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Narrative Therapy, depending on what fits you best. I might send you off with a bit of homework now and then (the teacher in me can't resist!), just small things to help keep your momentum going between visits.

I see clients virtually across Canada and in person in Petawawa, Ontario, and I work with WSIB, Veterans Affairs Canada, and CAF Blue Cross clients alongside private and insured care. We offer direct-billing to insurance at the clinic and are happy to get that set up for you.
