You’ve given yourself to others.
Now it’s time for you.
Welcome to my therapy practice.
Let’s work together so that you can feel like yourself again.
I’m so grateful you’ve arrived.
Everything you see here is a culmination of my life’s work. You see, my career as a psychotherapist began in Gr. 5 when my friends would book time with me to walk around the yard. It always felt natural for me to listen and get to know the real side of people. My mother is a psychiatrist and had a beautiful, cozy, family-run clinic in the heart of Hintonburg in Ottawa. She was an unconventional medical doctor for her time, and believed in love, compassion, and meditation, before pills. Our clinic was my second home and a safe place to many people. I helped to run the office until I was old enough to eventually work alongside my mother, first teaching music on the first floor, and eventually starting a practice as a therapist.
