Biography

I graduated with a Masters in Counselling in 2015 from Athabasca University and completed my practical hours at CASA Edmonton. I aim to support children through past or current trauma, changing family dynamics including grief/loss or divorce, anxiety, sensory or sleep issues, and/or learning disabilities. I offer a fun and compassionate environment for children to make sense of themselves and the world around them.

I also have a passion for sports psychology and working with athletes of all ages in all sports. As both a former competitive gymnast and a national level gymnastics coach and choreographer for 20 years my goal is to help athletes achieve balance between life and their sport, cope with past injuries in returning to sport, deal with the changes of retirement, work through performance anxieties, and move past fears and mental blocks.

I am trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) and also enjoy using narrative therapy, mindfulness, and play therapy.
