Denae's Expertise
I have a passion for working with children and their families. Children have such a strong desire to make change, and with the support of their parents the change that can be made is truly amazing.
I have provided clinical counselling support to people going through trauma, mental health issues, separation and co-parenting, grief, and life transitions. My passion lies in helping people realize their own resilience and abilities.
I have done extensive research on how to support women to have a healthy relationship with food and spent countless hours learning about how this relationship gets skewed and impacted as girls grow up and develop into women. This interest came from my own life experiences and then really flourished after having two daughters of my own. Supporting women to improve this relationship is important to me.
After years of living with a chronic health condition I have had difficulty finding the support I need. I would like to hold space for this in my private practice. I want to provide a safe, compassionate place for people to share their experiences and get the support they need to manage the challenges that arise.
