About Me
My work has always been rooted in a deep commitment to supporting children, parents, and families through life’s most difficult moments. I began my career in child welfare in Burlington, where I worked closely with at-risk families experiencing interpersonal abuse and neglect. That work shaped not only my professional path, but also my understanding of how deeply relationships, support, and healing matter.

How My Journey Evolved
As meaningful as that work was, I felt that something was missing. I witnessed the impact of trauma and mental health challenges across generations, and I wanted to support people in a way that felt more holistic, compassionate, and most of all, effective.
That realization led me to start my private practice in 2015, where I worked with individuals with a variety of mental health needs. My goal was to help people better understand themselves, build practical coping tools, and begin addressing the underlying factors that can contribute to generational patterns of hurt and disconnection.
Discovering My Passion
I later transitioned into providing specialized mental health services at a Children’s Trauma Centre in Oakville. This experience deepened my understanding of trauma and its effects, while also bringing greater clarity to the type of work I felt most drawn to.
It was there that I discovered a special passion for supporting parents and caregivers. I came to see how essential it is for families to have guidance, encouragement, and practical support, especially when parenting through stress, trauma, and challenging behaviours. Helping parents feel more confident, connected, and equipped became a meaningful part of my work.
The Heart Behind My Work
As a mom of two, this work is also deeply personal to me. I understand how rewarding parenting can be, but also how overwhelming, emotional, and uncertain it can feel at times. That personal perspective allows me to meet parents not only with professional knowledge, but with empathy, warmth, and a genuine understanding of the challenges they face.
My Hope for Families
My hope is to help parents build, strengthen, and restore family connections by giving them the tools, insight, and support they need to care for their children with confidence. I believe that when parents feel understood and supported, families are better able to heal, grow, and thrive together.
Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, unsure of where to start, or simply looking for support as you navigate your family’s unique journey, my aim is to offer a space that feels safe, compassionate, and helpful. I want parents and caregivers to know they do not have to do this alone.
