About Me


As  an experienced therapist, cancer patient,  daughter of two cancer surviving parents, and the mother of six children, my life experience and training has taught me the value of working with each person as a unique, dynamic individual.  I have lived in Ottawa and Australia for most of my adult life.  I passionately believe that while life challenges can be heartbreaking,  they can also provide one with an opportunity to discover what is truly meaningful, and to enhance one's appreciation for optimal physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.  I have personal experience raising children to adulthood, navigating the challenges and rewards of being in long-term relationships, and dealing with loss, illness and death.
