As a passionate people person, teaching, counselling and supporting people with their life issues is my life purpose and privilege. My specialty is getting to the source of clients’ relationship conflicts with family members which are often at the heart of emotional pain, anxiety, depression, stress and overwhelm. My expertise is helping people permanently resolve their problems at the source.
A thirty-year career as a secondary teacher of English and Social Sciences, has kept me honest, open, self-reflective and increasingly empathetic about our humanity. I have taught Parenting, Anthropology Sociology Psychology and World Religions. Alongside teaching, I have worked as a counsellor, healer, mediator, speaker and workshop presenter over the last twenty years.
I have also created and facilitated workshops and professional development programs for NGO’s, educators and administrators in Ontario, Canada and organizations overseas. Through this work I have gained extensive experience in community services, management, supervision and working with diversity in community building.
My formal education, training, and experience in holistic psychotherapies is grounded in Gestalt Therapy and Satir Transformational Family and Marriage Therapy. Additionally, Core Belief Engineering, Family Constellations, Shamanism, Spiritual Healing, as well as several energy healing modalities and my own soul guidance, reinforce my belief that we humans are spiritual beings having an earthly experience.
