Overview
With over 15 years of experience in a variety of settings, my greatest passion is being a life-long student and growing my knowledge and skills to help others.
I am passionate about using the principles of Neuropsychotherapy to guide people toward optimal functioning - in areas of fears, addictions, PTSD, trauma, and anxiety, empowering them to live their best life NOW and break free from the baggage that has kept them stuck in patterns of negative thinking and negative behaviours.
