Description

I am here to help you take steps to better manage the obstacles that are holding you back from living an emotionally healthy and fruitful life.  As a Registered Social Worker and Therapist I see people who are struggling with many difficulties including relationships challenges and breakdowns, stressful jobs, care-giving and parenting responsibilities, mental and physical illness, loss, grief and bereavement including loss of a beloved pet, and compassion fatigue.
