Specializing in grief and loss

Support when you need it most.
There is great strength in allowing the tears to fall and asking for help. Specializing in grief and loss, I believe in the importance of recognizing and understanding the impact it can have on all facets of daily living.
Trained in the Beck method of CBT, I provide solutions focused counselling and support to people struggling with a variety of challenges such as burn out, life cycle changes, anxiety and depression.

Support for Grief and Loss
Grief can be a difficult and lonely journey. Whether you have experienced the death of a loved one, are coping with a debilitating or terminal illness or have had to place a loved one or move into an assisted living facility, it is important to discuss your experiences and share your thoughts and feelings. An in depth understanding of how children and adolescents manifest grief informs the work I do with this important population.
I offer online support. Available weekdays and evenings.
