As 2025 comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the meaningful connections and conversations shared with clients throughout the year. It’s truly an honour to support each person on their journey toward growth, healing, and emotional well-being.
The holiday season can bring a mix of feelings. For some, it’s a time of joy, connection, and warmth. For others, it may stir stress, grief, or emotional overwhelm. Wherever you find yourself during this season, I hope you can meet yourself with patience, kindness, and gentle care. Small moments — a quiet cup of tea, a walk in the fresh air, or time spent with someone you trust — can offer grounding and comfort amidst the busyness.
A note about my office schedule:
My office will be closed from Monday, December 22, 2025, until Friday, January 2, 2026.
Sessions will resume on Monday, January 5, 2026.
While the office is closed, it’s important to know that support is still available if you need it. For immediate resources and crisis support, please visit the Emergency Services section on my contact page. These include links and contacts for urgent mental health support, so you’re never alone during difficult moments.
Thank you for trusting me to walk alongside you this year. May the coming weeks bring warmth, ease, and moments of connection that nourish your heart and mind.
