I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) in good standing with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).

Before becoming a CCC, I stayed home with and eventually homeschooled my two neurodivergent sons, who are now both attending high-school. Being a mom has been the most rewarding and challenging job I’ve ever had.

Before staying home, I work in IT as a programmer and then a project manager. I miss the terrific people, but I don’t miss the stress and pressure that I put on myself and others during those years. Thankfully, several painful and humbling experiences changed my focus from results to responsible caring.

Over my fifty+ years on this earth, I’ve faced many mental, physical, spiritual, and relational hardships, but I believe that every trial has been a growth-opportunity. I’m grateful that God has used these experiences to teach me compassion, understanding, faith, and acceptance.
