Introduction

**I am accepting new clients as of January 2024, for in-person therapy in Newmarket.** My practice values viewing those I work with through a mind-body-spirit perspective and as unique individuals who are the experts on their own lives. Whether or not we lose our way, or lose our sense of self, there is a deep wisdom within us that remembers who we are; that will guide us through what sometimes feels impossible. You can expect me to treat you with warmth, transparency, and compassion; to use skill, intuition, and evidence-based practices; and to keep your need for emotional safety forefront in my mind as we embark on your healing journey, together.
