After 45 very rewarding years in the profession, I will be retiring this summer. If you have been a client some time in the last 10 years and would like a copy of my hand-written notes from your file, please contact me to arrange this.

Therapists are required to keep their notes for 10 years so, unfortunately files prior to 2015 are not available.

Administrative fees:
$15 for 5 pages or less
$25 for more than 5 pages.

My thanks to all of you who trusted me with your personal troubles. It has been a privilege and an honour to work with you.

National Grief & Bereavement Day - November 18, 2025

Many people find it awkward to talk about death, loss, or grief. Grief is often misunderstood – by those who are experiencing it and by those trying to help.

Everyone will face loss at some point, but few of us are prepared for how long it can last, how deep it can feel, or how it changes our lives and the lives of the people we love.

When personal connection matters most, many who are grieving feel alone, misunderstood, and unsupported. Even well-meaning friends and family often struggle to provide comfort or guidance in the ways that are most helpful.

On National Grief and Bereavement Day, support grief literacy in Canada.
you can tune in November 13 at 12:00 PM ET for our first Grief & Bereavement Community of Practice education series with Dr. Susan Cadell.
