About You

You’ve spent years taking care of everyone and everything — your family, your work, your parents, the curveballs life’s thrown at you. You’ve been the steady one, the capable one. But lately, you’ve started to wonder: what about me?

Services

Midlife brings a lot of change — in family roles, relationships, health, identity. You don’t need to face it alone.

I offer therapy for:
• Finding balance with aging parents and complicated family dynamics
• Redefining yourself after caregiving, divorce, or burnout
• Adjusting to physical and emotional changes
• Easing anxiety, overwhelm, and self-criticism
• Building confidence and self-compassion for this next stage of life

Let’s make this next chapter one that truly fits you.

About Me / How Therapy Works

Think of me as both an anchor and an investigator. I create a grounded, compassionate space for you to freely share; while also helping you piece together the puzzle of your experience so you can move forward with more clarity.

I’m like the most nurturing detective – warm, playful, and deeply curious about what makes you, you.

I bring 30 years of clinical experience and continuing education to my work, along with the rich personal experience that comes with maturity. I’m almost 55, so I understand the unique challenges that woman experience at mid-life.

My style is warm, relatable, and relaxed — I immerse myself in what you’re feeling, but I’m also analytical and insightful. I’ll help you uncover patterns, gain clarity, and discover solutions, while keeping the process grounded, honest, and even playful.

Therapy with me is a place to pause, reflect, feel, and learn about yourself.  Together, we create the space for you to step into this next chapter with clarity, confidence, and authenticity.

I meet people in person at Cocoon Orillia at 53 Andrew Street in Orillia. My fee is $145 per session.
