Specialties

LGBTQIA2s+

I have been blessed with a diverse and inclusive clientele since starting my private practice nearly 20yrs ago. I have worked within the spectrum of the rainbow including much couples work, educating families, and also helping prepare clients for transition.

Marital Relationships

I am incredibly fortunate to have couples comprise about 50% of my practice. Whether newly dating or at your golden anniversary, same-sex or not, sometimes it’s nice to have a supportive neutral perspective.

Prevention, intervention or simply a tune-up, I offer pre-marital and marriage counselling, as well as separation and divorce counselling. Sessions can surround the couple or an individual member.

Personality Disorders and Other Mental Illnesses

I have experience and advanced training in working with various mental disorders, including: Borderline Personality Disorder, Bipolar Mood Disorder, Major Depression, and Anxiety Disorders.
