Compassionate, Inclusive Fertility Counselling Across Canada
Honouring your story with skill, ethics, and care.
My Counselling Approach
Fertility journeys in Canada can be complex. You may be facing waitlists, funding stress, IVF, donor options, surrogacy, or adoption. The emotions can come in waves—hope, grief, anger, and worry. Whatever you are feeling, it makes sense.
Welcome to Fertility Counselling. I provide online therapy for individuals and couples across Ontario and Canada. With over 25 years of experience working with people through crisis, I am committed to helping you recognize your own coping skills and develop new strategies to manage the presence of anxiety and loss.
I founded this practice because I am passionate about helping people develop better strategies to manage the ups and downs of trying to have a child. I work with individuals, couples, and 2SLGBTQIA+ clients, honouring diverse identities, cultures, and family paths. You deserve care that respects your dignity and your right to choose what is best for you.

Evidence-Based Modalities
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
CBT is structured and goal-oriented. It empowers you to identify and change the thought patterns and beliefs that fuel anxiety, anger, or stress during your fertility journey.
Beck, J.S. (2011). Cognitive behavior therapy: Basics and beyond.
Narrative Therapy
Narrative therapy helps you re-author your life story. We explore how culture and family influence your identity, allowing you to confront problems based on your own values.
