With over 20 years of experience, I provide compassionate, evidence-informed counselling for adults navigating complex trauma, life transitions, anxiety, and relationship challenges. My primary focus is working with individuals, including first responders and veterans, who are carrying the impact of cumulative or long-standing trauma.

I offer both Christian faith-based counselling and secular therapy, honouring each client’s values and worldview. Whether you are seeking clinically grounded trauma work or would like to integrate your faith into the healing process, our work together will be tailored to you.

I also support couples looking to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and reconnect.

My approach is relational, grounded, and trauma-informed. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone.
