I can provide Counselling, End-of-Life Care Coordination and System Navigation and Resource Coordination or a combination of all of these virtually for anyone in Ontario through a secure on-line link or in-person in your home or preferred meeting spot in the Kingston and area.

Counselling

Through counselling, including use of psychotherapy interventions, I support individuals and those who care for them navigating health challenges, including:

  • Coping with a new or chronic health condition or a loss of independence

  • Coping with supporting someone you care for through significant health changes, such as illness, injury, or loss of independence

  • Navigate your grief related to a health crisis, chronic illness, or terminal diagnosis and the the secondary losses related to it

  • Preventing carer and supporter burnout

  • Addressing and moving beyond conflicts or difficulties planning care among a group of carers and supporters

  • Navigating grief after the loss of your person or people

  • Debriefing with Teams or Groups after a loss of a colleague, client or close community member

End-of-Life Care Coordination

I provide support in planning and coordinating end-of-life care with you for yourself or others, including:
