Comprehensive Trauma-Informed Perinatal Support
I offer tailored education and support that seamlessly integrates your physical and mental health, addressing your unique needs with a compassionate, individualized approach. Here, you won’t find a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, you’ll find a casual, warm, supportive fellow mother dedicated to holding space for you as you navigate this new phase of life. Whether through therapy, coaching, education, or a combination of these services, I’m here to support you.
Pregnancy, birth, and motherhood bring immense joy, but they also come with new challenges and experiences that can be overwhelming. I’ve been there, and I understand how the right support can make all the difference.
Together, we can create a personalized plan to help you find joy, build confidence, and manage struggles with resilience. You, your baby, your family, and your future are worth it.
Book a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your goals and see if we’re a good fit for your needs.

Why Work With Me?
I offer a holistic approach that addresses emotional, practical, and psychological aspects of parenthood, providing well-rounded support.
On the other end of your video call, you will find an imperfect mother of two who understands how hard it is to get through the day sometimes. You will be joining a casual atmosphere where warmth is punctuated with humour (when appropriate). You will feel heard, cared for, and supported.
I've been a nurse for 13 years and I've worked with pregnant and postpartum mothers for almost a decade in the hospital setting. I've supported parents in joyous times and even some tragic, traumatic times. I've experienced firsthand how delicate this time is.
I saw ample gaps in perinatal mental healthcare within our healthcare system and I wanted to be a part of helping families bridge these gaps. This led me to take additional training in psychotherapeutic treatment modalities and specialize in perinatal mental health.
When I'm not here you may find me chasing after my kids somewhere in Muskoka, Ontario, or at a local workshop that I'm running.
I'm here for you. Let's connect.
