Hi, I’m Anita. I am a registered psychologist with over a decade of experience. I know life is full of highs and lows and have experienced many of the agonies that you also may be experiencing: feeling lost and alone in the world, dealing with unspoken family traumas, questioning whether my marriage could survive, sitting at the bedside of a dying loved one, and sleepless nights when I wondered how I would get my children to adulthood. I believe my professional and personal experience equips me to support your through the challenges you are facing. If you are struggling, I want to help.

My goal as a counsellor is to create a safe, comfortable space for you to work through whatever you are going through. I believe we all have the capacity to grow and change. I use a feedback informed, integrative approach to support you in making the changes you desire.

When I am not working, my favorite thing to do is spend time with my husband, 3 adult children, and my dogs. I love camping, travelling, yoga, puttering in my yard, reading a good book, or spending time among the trees. I believe balance is the key to a fulfilled life, so I am working hard to find that!
