I can direct bill some insurers. Please check with your provider for coverage details.
Due to liability and insurance policies, I cannot provide both counselling and holistic services to the same client at the same time. If you’re a counselling client and wish to explore holistic support, we can discuss transitioning your care accordingly.
Virtual sessions are conducted through a secure, PHIPA-compliant video platform. You’ll receive a private link before your appointment, and all you need is a quiet space, reliable internet connection, and a device with a camera and microphone.

Our first session focuses on understanding your current concerns, background, and goals for therapy. I’ll explain my approach, answer any questions you have, and we’ll collaborate on creating an initial plan for our work together.
Therapy can benefit anyone seeking support, growth, or change in their lives. You might consider therapy if you’re experiencing persistent emotional distress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply want to deepen your self-understanding. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your unique situation and determine if my approach aligns with your needs. Many people find that having a dedicated time and space to explore their concerns with a trained professional provides clarity and relief that’s difficult to achieve on their own. Remember that seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness, and you can always try a session or two to see if it feels helpful for you.
Research shows that virtual counselling can be just as effective as in-person sessions for many concerns. My holistic approach adapts well to the virtual environment, and many clients appreciate the convenience and comfort of connecting from their own space.
I typically recommend starting with weekly sessions to build momentum and establish our therapeutic relationship. As you progress, we’ll transition to bi-weekly sessions and eventually to less frequent meetings. The pace is always collaborative, based on your unique needs and progress toward your goals. We’ll regularly assess and adjust our schedule to provide the right level of support at each stage of your journey.
Yes, all therapy sessions are confidential. I follow strict professional ethics and legal requirements regarding privacy. The information shared in our sessions will not be disclosed to others without your written consent. There are specific legal limitations to confidentiality that include: risk of harm to yourself or others, suspected child or elder abuse, or if records are subpoenaed by court order. I’ll explain these exceptions in detail during our first session and answer any questions you have about privacy.
Forest Walk Therapy combines traditional counselling approaches with the healing benefits of nature. During these sessions, we engage in mindful walking and therapeutic conversation in natural settings, allowing the restorative qualities of the forest environment to enhance our work together.
While many people benefit from nature-based approaches, Forest Walk Therapy may not be suitable for all concerns or individuals. During our consultation, we’ll determine if this approach aligns with your specific needs, physical abilities, and access to suitable outdoor spaces.
For in-person Forest Walk Therapy sessions, we’ll make a decision about weather conditions at least 2 hours before our scheduled time. In case of rain, thunderstorms, extreme temperatures, or other inclement weather, we have several options: rescheduling to another day, switching to a virtual session, or utilizing covered natural areas like pavilions when available. Your safety and comfort are the priority.
Please dress comfortably for the weather conditions and wear sturdy, closed-toe footwear suitable for uneven terrain. Consider bringing layers, sun protection (hat, sunscreen), insect repellent when seasonally appropriate, and a small water bottle. You may also want to bring any personal items that help you feel comfortable outdoors, such as a walking stick or small cushion to sit on during reflection exercises. The focus is on being present in nature rather than hiking, so specialized equipment isn’t necessary – just clothing that allows you to move easily and stay comfortable in the elements.
