My approach is client centered, so I will be present with you in the process of therapy, and respect where you are, and your goals. I believe in the resiliency of the human spirit, and that there is always the capacity for healing.

Partner in exploring your gifts, strengths, and the issues that are important to you. This process can be fun and lighthearted, and I am also able to sit with your experience of pain, loss, and frustration.

I am kind, caring, and compassionate. I am non-judgmental, empathetic, and a good listener.

Youth, teens and adults who may feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, and may be dealing with life transition, trauma and loss. I use animal assisted therapy to add to the therapeutic process in connecting with animals and nature.

I value the importance of learning more about ourselves, and how to navigate the challenges of life with the support of a therapeutic relationship.

I have a background in holistic health; a massage therapist for over 30 years, and yoga teacher over 25 years. I am also a yoga therapist, able to adapt yoga techniques to address mental health issues and wellbeing. Also, a lifelong animal lover.
