Therapy
Let’s connect, whether it’s for yourself, your child or teen,
You Are Where You Need To Be.
Clarity and positive change are possibilities.
As a therapist, I specialize in supporting adults, children, teens and caregivers through life’s challenging chapters. Whether you're navigating a tough transition or burnout, or your child’s behaviour has become a burden at school and home, we can work through this together.
I'm passionate about helping others build resilience through the challenges.
This might look like taking time to better understanding yourself and the many parts of you that show up in unique ways. It may also include taking a closer look at trauma, unhealthy relationships, or simply taking a look at where you are right now and where you want might rather be. Together we can discover healthy approaches that work for you, leaving you feel more confident in yourself and managing each day.
Specializing in:
burnout and workplace challenges
building strong families
life transitions
anxiety and depression
ADHD and mood disorders
loss or sudden life change

“Seeking support for yourself or your child takes courage. Once that first step is made, it can offer a strong sense of relief. I approach therapy with warmth and curiosity to support each individual’s efforts to move toward health. I offer a relational approach, one which is strengths-based and person-centred to support feeling heard and valued.” ~ Marge
Values
Initiate Wellness believes meaningful work happens in spaces where people feel respected and included. Through openness, collaboration, and intentional practice, Initiate strives to cultivate an environment that is affirming, respectful, and attentive to individual differences.
We acknowledge that Initiate Wellness is located on the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral (Attawandaron), Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. These lands are connected by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which reflects shared responsibility to care for the land and one another, and the Between the Lakes Purchase (1792). We recognize that this area continues to be home to many Indigenous Peoples today, and we offer this acknowledgement as part of our commitment to respect, learning, and community care.
