Let us then labour for an inward stillness--

An inward stillness and an inward healing
                   From Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "Quiet Time"

Are you challenged by any of the following?
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Grief/Loss
  • Anger
  • Low Self-Esteem
  • Stress/Fatigue
  • Family Problems
  • Marital Conflict
If so, help is a telephone call away!  All of us, at one time or another, find ourselves in situations where life doesn't seem as vibrant or as satisfying as we know it can be. Living in a fast-paced world can leave us overwhelmed and stressed without the joy and peace we all seek.  All of us experience life events beyond our control.  Although we can't change our past or control the unpredictable situations life offers us now and in the future, we can control the IMPACT they have on us.
Peace and joy are possible.  My therapy is:

  • anchored in hope;
  • defined by positively directed goals moving towards growth and possibilities; and
  • grounded in the belief that change is always a renewable option.  
Empathy, compassion, sensitivity, and an ability to gain my clients' confidence quickly are values and qualities I bring to my therapeutic work.  Discover how meditation, visualization, mindful reflection, and moving towards the positive can:
  • lessen anxiety;
  • increase energy;
  • better communication; and
  • manage "knee-jerk" reactions.

Let me respectfully guide, support and encourage you to find your own inner wisdom, your own solutions to problems, and your own internal security.  The resources are all there--in you!  

For more than 25 years, I have worked with and/or for children, teens, young adults and families in the contexts of recreation, government, education and therapy. Most of my work has focused on issues related to children, teens, young adults, couples and families. Often, I use my background in Improvisational Drama and other Creative Therapies such as play, storytelling and storymaking in my therapeutic work with youth.

My education includes a Master's degree In Social Work with an emphasis on Individuals, Families and Groups from Wilfrid Laurier University.  I have completed Satir Systemic Brief Therapy, Levels I, II and four Level III Application courses as well as training and work in bereavement and complicated grief.  Recently, I was appointed one of the Directors for the BC Bereavement Helpline.  

My professional standards for myself are high, and I meet them by committing to continued Satir and other compatible professional training along with supervision with an experienced Registered Clinical Counsellor. 

Joy, contentment and peace are choices.  Transform your life.  Call for more information. I look forward to meeting with you!
