I work with individuals of all ages who have experienced trauma and are seeking a path toward healing and renewal. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that recovery is possible at any stage of life.
As an EMDR specialist with over 30 years of experience, I have worked with children in psychiatric settings, adults in community mental health clinics, and first responders following the Fort McMurray wildfire. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of creating a safe, supportive environment for growth. In our work together, my goal is to help you process what you’ve been through, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a greater sense of calm and well-being.

My personal healing through EMDR has enriched my clinical work, allowing me to bring both empathy and insight to my clients’ healing journeys.
