About Me

---

I am a Holistic Counsellor, Reiki Master and Certified Neural Network Therapy® Practitioner based in Quinte West, Ontario.

In 2007, I graduated with honours from the Fitness and Health Promotion program at Loyalist College, knowing I wanted to work with people in a way that felt meaningful and impactful, whether through the body or the mind. I have always believed that we learn the most about ourselves when we gently challenge the limits of what we think is possible.

Shortly after graduating, I relocated to Toronto, where I spent six years working in the private club industry as a Fitness Centre Manager, Fitness Consultant, and Personal Trainer. During this time, I discovered my gift for deep listening and authentic connection; a realization that guided me to expand my studies beyond the physical body and into the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of healing.

In 2013, I earned my diploma in Psychotherapy after completing a three-year in-class training program and then a three-year internship. During this transformative chapter of my life, I also became a mother to two incredible daughters; an experience that profoundly deepened my empathy, resilience, and understanding of the human experience.

Life later presented significant change through divorce, offering an unexpected invitation to rebuild and realign with my truest self. In 2019, I began studying Usui Reiki and received my Master’s training in 2021. Since then, I have continued to expand my practice through advanced energetic training including Healing Touch through the Healing Touch Association of Canada, trauma-informed education through the Community Resilience Initiative, professional development as an Advanced Holistic Coach™ through Journeys of Wisdom, and also becoming a Certified Neural Network Therapy® Practitioner through Canadian Family Health Counselling and Trent University.

My work integrates psychotherapeutic foundations with trauma-informed approaches and energy-based modalities. I specialize in working one-on-one and in small group settings, supporting clients in enhancing their quality of life, developing healthier responses to trauma, and uncovering and integrating hidden aspects of themselves for meaningful and lasting transformation.

My natural empathy and sensitivity to subtle shifts in body language and energy are continually refined through both formal training and lived experience. I embody the philosophy of “practice what you preach,” remaining deeply committed to my own ongoing growth and healing.

It is a profound honour to hold space for those who feel called to embark on the courageous journey of knowing themselves more deeply.
