About Care

I have always been drawn to work that involves being emotionally present with others, and bringing compassion, gentleness, and encouragement to the relationship.

Training as a therapist was a midlife career change for me, after working as a midwife for 20 years. Looking for a midlife career change that would allow me to still work intimately with clients and to continue to work within a feminist and social justice framework, I decided to retrain as a psychotherapist.

I am now in private practice, seeing see individual clients and groups, in person at my Peterborough office and virtually. As a registered psychotherapist, the therapy that I offer is covered by extended health benefits that include psychotherapy.

I am registered with the College of Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), a member of the Ontario Society of Registered Psychotherapists (OSRP), the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, and the Ontario Expressive Arts Therapy Association.

I am insured through the Ontario Expressive Arts Therapy professional association (Canadian/Ontario Expressive Arts Therapy Association).
