Thank you for visiting my profile :) I'm an experienced Registered Psychologist. I operate a general private practice, focusing mostly on individual counselling with adults. My specialty area and strong passion is maternal mental health and wellness (perinatal mood disorders, birth and reproductive trauma, pregnancy and infant loss, and fertility challenges). My clients come to me saying their journey to motherhood was not what they expected and they don't feel like themselves. I want all new mothers to know they aren't alone. Their struggle is real and there is hope. You can and will feel better with the proper support.
I am trained in several highly effective trauma recovery modalities including Eyemovement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR). I have taken training in maternal mental health and have lived experience as a new mom who experienced the struggle first hand. I will always remind you that your struggles don't define you as a mother.
I love meeting people where they are at in their healing journeys. I invite you to reach out to me via email me to connect for a complimentary 15 minute consult. I can offer feedback on community supports and alternatives if private psychotherapy doesn't fit what you currently need or can access. It takes courage to ask for support and I see your courage!
