Evergreen Wellness

403-507-5650

I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) who lives and works in rural, central Alberta. Before becoming a counsellor, I spent 18 years working in agricultural finance, giving me firsthand insight into industry economics and the financial pressures farmers face. I later returned to school to complete a Master’s in counselling psychology, combining my deep understanding of Ag with my passion for mental health.

I truly understand the diversity of operations and the multitude of stressors caused by weather, family dynamics, production, markets and finances, because I grew up with them, still live in a farming community, and work closely with Ag operators. I have worked with producers, farm employees, veterinarians and vet techs throughout central and Southern Alberta in the hog, poultry, grain and dairy sectors. 

My counselling approach is unique to you and respectful of your background, beliefs and circumstances. I use an integrated, collaborative approach to ensure you get what you need. I am client focused and practical, with specific training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapeutic approaches.

What’s most important for people to know about me is that I will be honest, honour your values and experience, sometimes challenge you, and offer a confidential relationship in which you feel safe and supported. Let’s work together to create the positive change you’re striving for.
