About Me
Therapist, Mother, & Wife
Aside from being a therapist, I am the mother to the most beautiful little girl, a wife to my high-school sweetheart, and a ongoing hobby starter. In my free time I love to attend spin classes, sew new projects, read great thrillers, find new hobbies to start (and probably not finish), and keep up with the latest Netflix TV shows.
I also work as part-time as a school counsellor for kids at an elementary school - and I love what I do!
I have lived experience with anxiety, depression, and panic attacks, so I know what it is like to feel helpless and desperate for healing. I became a therapist because I found healing in psychotherapy and I wanted to be the source of hope for those who are experiencing inner turmoil and/or mental health struggles.
