About Me

I aim to bring empathy, compassion, curiosity, authenticity, openness, laughter and a love of human being to my work. I draw from many therapeutic models including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), DBT and CBT. Although I have lived in the US for 20 years, I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada and also lived in England.

Education & Experience

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor offering private Telehealth in CT. I worked (and still work one day a week) at Shoreline Wellness Center in West Haven. Previously I worked as a clinician at the Post Traumatic Stress Center in New Haven. I received my MA in Counseling from Northwestern University and prior to that my MA in Psychology from Southern Connecticut State University.

Professional & Volunteer Affiliations

I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) - NBCC. I am a full member of EMDRIA
