I am the Owner and founder of Nest Family Counselling!  My work is primarily focused on relationships: the relationship you have with yourself and the relationship you have with others.

Like many of you, I wear many hats in life.  My favourites include Wife, Stepmom, Counsellor and World Traveller! These roles help to provide a layer of empathy and understanding.  

I am down to earth and understand real-life challenges.  I utilize both humour and honesty in session.  I am collaborative and work together with clients to create personalized plans and provide tools to guide you forward and help you achieve your desired goals. 

​

I specialize in Separation, Divorce, Marriage, Marriage Reconciliation and Bi-nuclear families (blended and stepfamilies).  I subscribe to a strength-based approach and believe that to help others, we must first help ourselves.  I use Cognitive-Behavioural strategies in combination with narrative therapy to explore deconstructive beliefs that are negatively influencing multiple aspects of your life. 

I am a Canadian Certified Counselling (10003364).  I have a Masters in Counselling Psychology and a Gottman Method Couples Therapy trained clinician that is approved  to administer the Relationship Checkup and use Gottman resources and tools to help clients and couples discover areas of strength and opportunities for improvement.

I work with Couples, Individuals, Families, and Co-parents to build healthier and happier relationships.
