About

Hi, I'm Ann-Marie. I enjoy working with individuals and families, helping them to navigate the challenges of life, whether they are personal, with family, or with peers. I help my clients identify and implement effecting coping skills for a variety of issues, including Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Bipolar, Grief and loss, Self -esteem, Life stages/transition, and Coping with chronic medical conditions such as infertility and diabetes. I earnestly implement the most appropriate and effective modalities to personalize each clients’ therapeutic needs and as a result I work from a collaborative, strengths-based approach; assisting and supporting clients to be self-directive of their own lives as I assist and guide them in the right direction. I strive to provide a comfortable environment in effort to equip clients with the tools needed to manage current and future difficulties to foster their ability in finding a healthy path on their life journey. I provide a safe space that supports a non-judgmental environment to provide clients the opportunity to share their concerns, explore their emotions and identify solutions to life challenges and obstacles. It takes courage to take the first step towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
