At the heart of healing is a trusting, authentic therapeutic connection. I aim to create a space where you can be fully yourself. I’ll meet you with compassion and care while also helping you to notice and move through the patterns that are holding you back. My approach is wholistic (mind-body-spirit) and highly collaborative.

I use EMDR therapy as a central part of my work. EMDR can help the nervous system move from a place of overwhelm toward a greater sense of calm, balance, and resilience. Find out more about EMDR here or visit the EMDRIA website for even more information. Other modalities that influence my work are Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and somatic (body- based) practices.

I am registered at the Master’s level (MSW) with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. If you have extended health benefits, my services are generally covered. Please reach out if you have any questions around this. You can connect with me at Reclaim and Rise Counselling for an appointment in Stratford, Ontario or virtually across the province.

I currently provide support to those over the age of 16.
