I studied psychology at the University of Ottawa and then established myself in my first career as a counsellor and advocate for women who had survived violence. After 7 very rewarding years working with the Sexual Assault Support Centre of Ottawa I decided it was time to gain more tools to help people on their healing journeys. I was drawn to Naturopathic Medicine because of the focus on the patient’s empowerment and the use of natural and traditional medicines.

In my practice I focus on women's health issues such as fertility, pre-natal health, hormone balancing and menopause. Since giving birth to my daughter in 2013 and my son in 2016 I have developed a passion for pediatrics as well. I also have an interest in helping people with cancer increase their quality of life and improve their health. Thanks to my background in working as a counsellor, I'm able to bring counselling skills to the care of my patients here at Thunder Bay Naturopathic Clinic and have been able to help people suffering from anxiety, depression and PTSD.
