Background

I've worked in mental health for 25 years and it continues to be my passion. Before starting my private practice several years ago, I worked in various mental health settings because I wanted to understand and learn as much about mental health as possible before embarking on my own. This included community mental health, hospital settings, gambling addictions, anxiety disorders clinic, forensics settings, and geriatrics and dementia care.

Areas of expertise

These are the areas I commonly work with, and they form a big part of the support I offer in my practice:

Expertise area 1
Women's Issues?
Expertise area 2
Anxiety & Worry?
Expertise area 3
Depression?
Expertise area 4
Life Transitions?
Expertise area 5
Emotional Regulation?

I also support you in these additional areas and welcome you to reach out if any of them speak to what you are going through:

Burnout
Infertility & Miscarriages?
Self-esteem & Self-worth?
Personal Growth?
ADHD?
