Hello! I am an experienced Registered Clinical Social Worker (RCSW), a Narcissistic Abuse Trained Clinician (NATC) and Addictions Specialist with a rich background in various therapeutic settings. . I hold a Masters of Social Work from Dalhousie University and have over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families. Outside of my work, I am a mother, a wife, a creative and a life long learner.
With extensive clinical experience and a direct approach, I specialize in anxiety, narcissistic abuse recovery, relationship issues, complex family systems, and codependency. My typical clients are female, aged 30-55 who are working through anxiety, addressing family of origin legacies and/or working on relationship issues.
I believe that all individuals, couples and families are capable of overcoming hardship and creating lasting change. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space that allows others to feel secure enough to express themselves fully.
