ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
FOR SEPTEMBER
I have been working with patients and staff in healthcare for the last 20 years. Working with patients as a Nurse and with staff as a Clinical Manager in Palliative Care, I have developed a deep understanding of working with those seeking change from a whole-person perspective. I approach each individual as a unique person with a unique set of values. This approach has helped me learn how to build strong relationships, where my aim is to connect and work with
each person’s strengths to help them through challenges.
I am a warm, compassionate professional who understands that people are at their best when they feel seen and heard. I
have spent my professional career helping others feel seen and heard, by listening compassionately, without judgement to what has brought them to their current place in life. People are complex and relationships are complex and I am honoured to work with clients who are willing to open up and share their challenges in order to better face and navigate their relationships, first and foremost with themselves, as well as family, romantic or professional.
I love human complexity and am always in awe that no two people are the same. I am a person who is always striving for authenticity and a greater mind body connection and I want to help others find this for themselves. My own early life experiences have shaped me to be a compassionate and non-judgmental person and I use these strengths to help me form connections and strong relationships.
On a personal note, I immigrated to Canada when I was 5 years old and spent my formative years in Toronto and outside Canada. Now I'm a busy working mother with teenage children who is doing her best to raise level headed kids who will be thoughtful adults.
In my downtime, I am either out and about in the city, enjoying the energy of communities and people watching or out for a good walk in my local park with family or friends for quiet time in nature. I love being physically active, especially resistance training and circuit training. If the music is good, you'll find me singing along between and during sets! Lastly, I love a good meal and am usually the one to bring dessert to the potluck!
