About Me

Drawing on over 25 years of experience, I offer psychotherapy to teens, adults, and families. I help individuals navigate anxiety, life transitions, grief, separation, and trauma. For families, I support positive communication, addressing behavioural or school-related issues. My approach creates a space where you can explore challenges and find clarity. Clients value my extensive experience, finding a steady guide to foster new ways forward through difficult times.

Approach

Clients often tell me our work unfolds with steady, practical steps that help untangle anxious patterns and difficult transitions. In London, Ontario I meet in English and offer both in-person and online sessions, moving at a pace you set and adjusting focus when family dynamics or school concerns surface. Sessions mix focused reflection, skills practice, and communication strategies; between meetings I may suggest short exercises or brief check-ins to strengthen new patterns. People who prefer clear structure and practical tools often find this approach helpful.
