I have worked as a Counsellor with children, adults, couples, and families in private practice and within organizations since 1983. I view counselling as a holistic process and take into account the emotional, mental, practical, and spiritual aspects of clients’ lives and the challenges they face during life transitions as well as everyday life.
I support individuals in expanding their outlook and experience of life so that it includes an increased sense of wholeness, purpose, self-reflection, connection, optimism, and joy. I offer relationship counselling, communication skills, and conflict resolution strategies to couples who wish to maintain and deepen intimate long-term relationships.
I also provide emotional and practical support to parents and children experiencing change and loss associated with separation and divorce. I act as a Collaborative Divorce Coach and Mediator for parents and as a Child Specialist for children involved in separation and legal processes. I help separating couples create a parenting plan, develop co-parenting skills, and make life-enhancing decisions as they experience the re-structuring of their family.
